The countdown to Childrens' Day began today when children from Sacred Heart School were treated to a story and introduced to the new Childrens' Day characters. The characters were unveiled at the Wellington City Library by Childrens' Day patron Her Excellency Susan Satyanand, who read Merito Tawhara and Nikki Slade Robinsons' book, The Priri Tree, to the children from the Thorndon-based primary school.
