The Tokelauan families who arrived in New Zealand in December 1966 stayed the night at Whakaue marae in Maketū, on the Bay of Plenty coast, before moving to their new homes in Rotoehu, near Rotorua, where the men were employed by the New Zealand Forest Service. The Rotorua district still has a small population of Tokelauans in the 2010s.
