The settlement was established in 1868 and celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2018.[3]
Two marae are located south of the main settlement: Araparera Marae or Te Aroha Pā and its Kia Mahara meeting house, and Kakanui Marae and Te Kia Ora meeting house.[4] Both are tribal meeting grounds for Ngāti Rāngo, Ngāti Whātua and Ngāti Whātua o Kaipara.[5]

gollark: I guess one might be network connectivity, since your moonbrain being several light-years from a stargate would make it not very useful for real-time stuff.
gollark: It seems like - since there's not any mention of the eldraeverse having moonbrains everywhere - there's some reason you can't just cheaply stick some self-replicating machinery on a planet and come back in a hundred years and... do moonbrain things.
gollark: Giant fractal things are a nice decoration for *any* planet, really.
gollark: Especially since the magic phased array thing will probably dump lots of heat for all the computing and... phased-arraying, I have no idea how an optical one would actually work internally.
gollark: I think a big problem for this whole moonbrain thing might be heat.
