Year 6 Parliament Trip

To extend our learning during Parliament Week earlier this term, Year 6 had the wonderful opportunity to visit UK Parliament to learn first hand how bills are created and ascended. We started our journey with a film outlining the history of Parliament before entering the Palace of Westminster. Our guide took us on the route taken by the Monarch during the state opening of Parliament, through the robing room and into the House of Lords. Here, we heard about the Lords involvement in lawmaking and how bills are debated and passed. We then moved to the House of Commons and Westminster Hall. After our tour we took the opportunity to visit Whitehall, Downing Street, St James’ Park and Buckingham Palace to see first hand the connections between Parliament and the crown.
