This morning, Dame Cindy and Dr Davies visited Wellington’s iconic Newtown Festival, with Dame Cindy officially opening the event. The Newtown Festival is an annual street celebration bringing around 100,000 people to Newtown to enjoy stalls, kai, and live performances. As today is also Children’s Day, the talented Te Kapa Haka o Te Kura o Ngā Puna from Newtown School performed the haka whakatau to begin the day’s festivities.
