York’s first open forum for primary school pupils is welcoming children to have their say on the city and their views on it.
On Monday 26 June City of York Council is hosting the first ever Primary Voice event with Clifton Green Primary School. 20 schools across the city are sending some 70 participants – pupils and staff – and councillors from all the main political parties will be attending.
Schools have been invited to bring pupils from Years 5 and 6 or from their school council, to come and share the views of their school community.
They can talk to councillors and officers, take part in workshops, hear about how City of York Council operates and experience democracy in action.
