On Thursday 26 January, students from Sandringham Primary School visited Parliament for a tour, along with Head Teacher Robert Cleary. They also had the opportunity to ask Stephen some questions.
Stephen and the students discussed laws which the Government could introduce. Some suggested introducing more legislation to tackle poaching of endangered animals and others wanted to see laws prohibiting smoking.
The group also discussed ways to improve their local community, including through reducing pollution and fly-tipping. The Q&A session concluded with a lively debate on whether students should spend more or less time in school!
Speaking after the session, Stephen said “I very much enjoyed answering the students’ questions and hearing about their suggestions to tackle air pollution and littering. I thank them for the work they are doing on behalf of their fellow pupils and look forward to visiting Sandringham Primary School in the next few months.”
