I suspect there will be no real need to reserve a part of this range as if you need to create fancy subnetworks then you just need to use another one of your /64 blocks (and you have been given 65536 of them, that should be enough!). But in any case, pfSense allows to subdivide the block further if you need to (see the "subnets" options).
 
Once this is done, it is then necessary to activate the router advertisements (RA), so select the "Router Advertisements" tab and then use the "Unmanaged" or "Assisted" mode. I tend to use "Assisted" because it allows me to do static DHCP assignment for some of my machines (although this is quite a pain at present as it is based on DUID and not MAC addresses).
 
The configuration screen will be similar to this:
