Tokelau Christmas 2019
As the majority of Tokelau’s inhabitants are practising Christians, Christmas is an essential festival on the atolls. This element of Tokelauan culture is reflected in its national badge – a tuluma (fishing box) that bears a white cross, and an inscription that reads ‘Tokelau mo te Atua’ (Tokelau for God). Tokelau’s 2019 Christmas issue features tuluma in their various forms, embellished with a whimsical Christmas sparkle.
