What an experience!!!!

Wow! What an experience we had yesterday. It was an honour and privilege to host Darryl Reid, the speaker of the Legislative Assembly, his clerk, and Dennis Smook, La Verendrye MLA. Hearing about their occupations and responsibilities in being part of our government was very informative. The activity of going through the passing of a bill to become law was very interactive and amusing. I learned that I have students that are very good at persuading people to change their minds about a bill. Maybe we should have a debate someday. I would like to thank you grade 6 students for being polite, energetic, willing, and respectful towards our guests and what they were teaching us. I think if we manage to get to the Legislative Assembly in spring, we would be gettting the royal treatment. They told me that they very much enjoyed their time with us and to be sure we visit them when and if we get to the Legislative Building, home of the Golden Boy!
