AM Welcomes Local School


CARL SARGEANT AM WELCOMES YSGOL DERWEN SCHOOL TO ASSEMBLY
Twenty eight pupils and their teachers from Ysgol Derwen School in Higher Kinnerton have today visited their Assembly Member Carl Sargeant at the National Assembly for Wales.The pupils met with Mr Sargeant in the Assembly Chamber’s public gallery, where Mr Sargeant talked to the pupils about the environmental aspects of the Assembly chamber, including its geothermal heating system. Mr Sargeant said: “I really enjoyed meeting with the pupils of Ysgol Derwen School and their teachers. Welcoming local groups from Alyn and Deeside to the Assembly is one of the most special parts of my job. It is great to see such an enthusiastic group of young people. The pupils proved to be particularly clued up on environmental and sustainable living issues. I hope the children enjoyed their visit as much as I did.”The children were also treated to a full and interactive guided tour of the Assembly building and the Pierhead building which houses a museum about the Assembly. Mr Sargeant will be visiting the pupils at their school next month.
