Children from Newtown School were our guests of honour at this morning's launch of a children's book "The Wolf and the Hocus Pocus", the latest publication in the "Feel Brave" series of books written by Avril McDonald. The series focusses on helping children deal with their feelings and concerns, and is supported by Save the Children, Women's Refuge, and the New Zealand Life Education Trust. The children were joined by Harold the Giraffe while they had their morning tea, and Dame Cindy presented them each with a crown pin as a memento of their visit to Government House.
