Uruti is a locality in northern Taranaki, in the North Island of New Zealand. It is located on State Highway 3, north-east of Mimi and south-west of Ahititi. The Uruti Stream meets the Mimi River at this point. The river flows past the settlement into the North Taranaki Bight. A district nurse was appointed to serve the backblocks of the Uruti Valley in 1909. This was the first district nursing service in New Zealand. The Uruti tunnel links the Uruti Valley with the main highway. It was completed in 1923 and is the longest and most unstable tunnel in Taranaki. The 1984 film ''Vigil'' was filmed at Uruti. Much of the 2003 film ''The Last Samurai'' was filmed in the Uruti Valley, with Mount Taranaki/Egmont standing in for Mount Fuji.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Last Samurai New Zealand Film Location ) 〕 ==Education== Uruti School is a coeducational full primary (years 1-8) school with a decile rating of 3 and a roll of 13.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Te Kete Ipurangi - Uruti School )〕 The school celebrated its centennial in 1998. 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「Uruti」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
