Te Mahurehure Cultural Marae - Point Chevalier
About Te Mahurehure Cultural Marae
Fundraising
Starting with just a bare-floored football training shed and an empty field, the society undertook many years of fundraising through social functions, housie nights, cake stalls and sports events.
The socials, held every three months, were hugely popular with performances from high profile acts like the Yandall Sisters, Prince Tui Teka, Bunny Walters and many other legendary Maori entertainers. They became a mainstay on the social calendar with supporters travelling from north and south to attend.
Sunday sports events brought in more funds and more importantly—manpower to help maintain the site.
After five years of full-on fundraising efforts, the loan was paid off and serious work could begin on the site’s development.

β β β β β The 2018 Race Relations Day celebrations organised by the NZ-Asia Assocation (NZAA) inc were held at the TeMahurehure Cultural Marae. Beyond the excellent venue, Christine Panapa was most welcoming, accommodating and her warm manner with her whanau made for a unique Maori experience in celebrating Race Relations Day. The buffet food was excellent and this was supplemented with an array of ethnic dishes from NZAA. We thank Christine, Tracey and their whanua for helping to make a Race Relations Day 2018 a special one. Nga Mihi. Vivian Chow NZAA Inc
