On this bright and sunny day, 52 children from the Kaimyo-in Children/Children's Division

On this bright and sunny day, 52 children from the Kaimyo-in Children/Children's Division, accompanied by 16 adults, were excited as they assembled at the temple.

1. Does "On this bright and sunny day" fit the rest of the sentence?
2. Should it be "Children" or "Children's" Division?

Thanks.
