Westgate Hill Primary Academy - Apr 3
Our School Parliament have been visiting the Houses of Parliament in London. The children have been enjoying an exclusive meeting with Chi Onwurah, our MP for Newcastle-upon-Tyne Central and West. Chi welcomed our children to Parliament, explained how our UK democracy works and what MPs do in the House each day. The group even managed to see Buckingham Palace on their travels too! The children have been wonderful: demonstrating impeccable manners throughout and acting as superb ambassadors for Westgate Hill. Fabulous!
