Kayden (9) and Jadea-Lee (11) are all smiles with the news their family won an Easter surprise thanks to The Hits Taranaki and Primo Wireless.
Even before the Prime Minister announced it the team at The Hits Taranaki knew the Easter Bunny was an essential worker.
With families enduring lockdown and unable to indulge in many of their usual family traditions, the Hits Taranaki team worked with two local businesses to give some families, andthe Easter Bunny, a helping hand.
Thanks to support from Primo Wireless and Metcalfe Real Estate, the Hits Taranaki was able to deliver an Easter surprise to families and individuals across the region.
Rhys (4) and Joel (7) and their dog Blaze are all happy with their surprise Easter prize.
People were asked to nominate deserving recipients via Facebook, and four winners were chosen from each town.
In Stratford, Kellie Harrison and her family were one of the lucky winners, and says she was thrilled with the news.
"Thank you to my beautiful friend for nominating my family to win the Easter Prize, it was an awesome surprise, Jadea-Lee (11) and Kayden (9) were so excited."
