UK Parliament Week:           On Monday 24^th November, Key Stage Two participated in an online workshop about Parliament in the UK. We discussed what it means to live in a democracy, the age we can vote in the UK and that everyone has the right to vote. We were told about how we could contact our local Member of Parliament (MP), Mary Creagh, and how anyone can become an MP, so long as they are voted into that position. Children were shown images of Sir Keir Starmer (the Prime Minister) and the government and how they make decisions around housing, jobs, police, health and education
