Curious why many left for New Zealand? (General)

It is worth seeing if their neighbours, or people in the same town or region, came from the same place too. Sometimes a friend or relative emigrates and then others join them once they are established. I am wondering also if people who had settled in other far flung colonies, e.g. India, Hong Kong, Singapore might have moved on to New Zealand rather than to return to England. I have found one or two that did that.
