On Friday the 25th February, the Mayor of Great Yarmouth came to our school! He talked to Emerald Class, Diamond Class and the nursery. He talked to us about how we will be the generation that changes the future and how adults should therefore look after us.
He also asked if anyone thought there were any issues that needed sorting out. One issue was litter, and the mayor explained he has a team who he calls when there is a place with lots of litter, who then clean it up. Another thing he talked about was how that when our parents receive their taxes, they are annoyed or unhappy, but those taxes pay for things like Great Yarmouth market and doing up the waterways.
The mayor explained about hoe his chain was real gold and there was a coin on the chain which had a lot of history; he even let one of us wear his chain and hat!
Just before he went into the nursery, he invited Diamond Class to come to the town hall and have a debate over a subject to get idea of how decisions are made.
