The brain behind the event, Brett John (centre) |
Brett actually chaired the debate himself and did a fantastic job of keeping us all in order!
The pupils were very engaged and asked probing questions which varied from A&E Services, education and the Welsh language. Everyone involved in the event at Coedcae should be very proud of themselves and once again I would like to say a huge DIOLCH to everyone who helped make the day a success.
More young people involved in politics is what is needed,
ReplyDeleteI know it is cliche but young people are the future,
No matter what your families traditional views are it is so important that people make there own choices and holding debates like this is an exelent way for people to achieve these choices.
Far too much secrecy in both Local and National Politics,a more open and transparent system is needed.
Well done Coedcae School.
Spot on Kevin! You've hit the nail on the head. The pupils were really engaged and we need more of these events.
DeleteIf the indyref in Scotland has taught us anything, it is that young people have a voice and it should be respected - as you said - WELL DONE COEDCAE SCHOOL.
