“It’s quite interesting, I have managed to learn a lot of new stuffs like the history of Parliament and the Mace,” she said.
“This is more exposure about Parliament and I really thank the team for coming down to our school.”
Her colleagues, Ronett Trail and Priya Chand also shared similar views and echoed that the programme was very educational.
The duo said that they have both been enlightened further about the roles and functions of Parliament, how Members of Parliament are elected and what actually happens in the House during sittings, to name a few.
