E anganui ana i 5 Huarahi o Akatarawa, Reikōrangi

Ko ‘The gate’, te ‘gateway to heaven’ rānei te whakapākehātanga o Reikōrangi.  I takea mai tēnei kōrero i te haerenga o tētehi pononga ki roto i te riu engari kīhai ia i hoki mai.  I pēnei te whakaaro kua kuhu atu ia i Reikōrangi.

Nō te tomokanga o ngā iwi o te raki i a Muaupoko i ngā tau o te 1820, i whakatū punanga a Muaupoko ki Te Pā o Toata i te wāhi whāiti o te urunga o te riu.  I 1891 i hokongia atu a Reikōrangi e ngā kaipupuri Māori o te whenua, e 2/3 o te whenua ki te Karauna.  Ko te nuinga e toe ana ka mahia hei teihana arā ko Elder’s ‘Waimahoe’ station. 

Mai i ngā tau 1890 ki 1908, neke atu i te kotahi rau ngā tāngata e mahi ana mō ngā mira nā rātou i poro ngā rākau kia mārakerake ai te ngahere, ā, ka uru mai ngā kaipāmu.  I tērā wā i reira tētehi rēra tō e rere ana ki te teihana rerewhenua o Waikanae.

I 1895 i tūwhera mai tētehi poutāpeta me te kura ki Reikōrangi.  I 1907 i tū te karakia tuatahi o te whare karakia o St Andrews. 

Nā te Kaporeihana o te Kamupene Miraka Kau o Ōtaki i whakahaere tētehi wheketere kirīmi atu i 1902 ki 1920. 

I ngā tau o te 1960 i heke haere te nuinga tāngata.  I 1962 i katia te poutāpeta, ā, i katia te kura i 1970.  I ēnei rā, e kaha ana te mahi whenua whakataka me te mahi pāmu ki Reikōrangi.
