The Parliament of NSW and Government House jointly conduct a civics and citizenship program for Year 12 captains and student leaders from all NSW secondary schools. It gives the student leaders the opportunity to develop their knowledge of our system of government, parliamentary proceedings, the role of members of parliament, and the role of the Governor of NSW.
The student leadership program has now been running for more than 20 years. Schools are invited in their state electorates across separate dates during Term 2. The program is only held on Sitting Days so that students are able to meet their local member of Parliament.
Tom and Lilly participated in this day. Thank you to Yasmin Catley MP for the invitation to this insightful event.
