Our Year 5 students recently had the opportunity to visit Parliament House! During their visit, they participated in a guided tour exploring the Senate and the House of Representatives, gaining firsthand insight into the workings of our democracy.

A highlight of the day was their session with the Parliamentary Education Office, where students became young parliamentarians in a mock debate to pass a bill in the House of Representatives. The proposed bill? That all schools should include three hours of PE every day!

With passionate speeches, clever arguments, and some impressive attempts to sway the crossbench, the "government" secured victory. The bill was passed, to the excitement of the students, who discovered the power of persuasive communication and collaboration.
