🏛️ A Day at Parliament House!

Today, our children had an exciting and meaningful excursion to Parliament House!

A special thank you to Matthew Hilakari for taking the time to personally guide us through Parliament and share how it works. The children learned that Parliament House is where some of the most important decisions for our state are made.

We had the opportunity to visit the special chamber where Members of Parliament meet to discuss and make important decisions that affect our communities, such as building new schools, colleges, hospitals, roads, and other essential services.

One of the highlights of the visit was seeing the beautiful throne, where the King's representative sits during special parliamentary ceremonies. The children were fascinated to learn about its significance and the traditions of Parliament.

Experiences like these help bring learning to life, inspiring curiosity, developing an understanding of how our community works, and encouraging children to become active and informed citizens.

A big thank you to everyone who helped make this wonderful learning experience possible!
