Ahaura is a town in the West Coast region of New Zealand's South Island, sited where the Ahaura River flows into the Grey River. State Highway 7 and the Stillwater - Westport railway line pass through the town. Greymouth is to the south-west, and Reefton is to the north-east. The population of the Ahaura statistical district, which covers a much larger area than the town, was 390 in the 2006 Census, a decrease of 21 from 2001. European settlement of the area began with the establishment of a pastoral run near the junction of the Ahaura and Grey Rivers in 1858. At one time the town supported six hotels, two butcheries, a bakery, a blacksmith's shop, and a printing office.〔''The Cyclopedia of New Zealand'' (1906)〕 ==Education== Awahono School – Grey Valley is a coeducational full primary (years 1–8) school with a decile rating of 4 and a roll of 119.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Te Kete Ipurangi - Awahono School - Grey Valley )〕 The school was formed at the beginning of 2005 from the merger of Ahaura, Moonlight, Ngahere and Totara Flat schools. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ahaura」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
