Rights Respecting councillors visit the Town hall!
On Friday the 26th of January 18 RRS school councillors got the opportunity to go to our local Town hall and visit the Mayor of Waltham Forest , Roy Berg . Once they arrived they were accompanied by Lauren, the Mayor’s assistant who escorted them to the chamber where they met the Mayor. After the lovely chat with Mayor Berg the RRS councillors asked a few questions about what is involved in being the Mayor. We also found out that the Mayors charity this year is to raise awareness of ex-servicemen and what the community can do to help them.
Emma said ’I enjoyed the trip as it was very interesting and the people were lovely. My favourite bit was meeting the Mayor.’ Zhion liked finding out that the Mayor has his own office and a personal rest room!
The Mayor also told the councillors that he is very proud of being an ex Chingford CofE pupil! Who knows.....in the future one of these councillors might follow in Roy's footsteps!
