ORDER in the House of Commons!
On Thursday 20thJune, Class 3 and Class 4 were given the opportunity to put their debating skills to the test in a mock House of Commons setting, led by an official member of parliament! Following an important assembly on our political system and democratic rights, children were spit into the ‘government’ and the ‘opposition’. They debated a range of ‘new laws’, including: a law that states children must spend two extra hours afterschool each work doing exercise and children should be limited to 2 hours of screen time a night. Although neither new law passed their democratic votes, children respected the views of each other and presented strong, well-considered points on both sides of the debate and had a wonderful time.
