General Election - 7th May 2015 - Educational Visit to London Today the School Councillors and Anti-Bullying Ambassadors went on a visit to London. During the day the children had a tour of Parliament, participated in a workshop about 'Elections and Voting' (electing the 'Purple People Eater Party and electing our Primary Minister) and went on the London Eye. This visit on such an important day really demonstrated the role of the Government to the children and how they are elected. A fantastic day! |
