We chose eight of our school leaders to represent Brooklands Farm on a very special visit to The Houses of Parliament.
On the way to the Palace of Westminster, we took in some of the sights and history. Such as;
Buckingham Palace
Admiralty Arch:
Trafalgar Square:
Horse Guards:
Downing Street:
The Cenotaph:
Unfortunately we were not allowed to take photos in the Houses of Parliament apart from Great Westminster Hall but we did get the opportunity to go inside the House of Commons!
The children took part in a workshop about what the different levels of parliament are and how we can get our voices heard.
We found out that there are four levels of Parliament;
– Local
– National
– Devolved
– European
We wore hats to represent the different forms.
