Police and Oranga Tamariki confirmed staff are at the religious community - but are tight-lipped on why.
Oranga Tamariki says the agencies are working to ensure the safety of children and young people living there.
Sources have told the Herald youngsters are being interviewed and the police investigation is linked to allegations of sexual abuse.
A police operation was launched last year into claims of sexual abuse at the community.
