Stevenson Takes Questions from Fraserburgh Primary School Pupils

Banff & Buchan MSP Stewart Stevenson has visited Fraserburgh South Park Primary School as part of an MSPs in Schools programme. Mr. Stevenson was briefed by pupils of two P7 classes on the issues that mattered to them. He then participated in a question and answer discussion session where pupils questioned him on a range of local and national issues

Commenting Mr. Stevenson said;

“I am delighted to have been invited to visit Fraserburgh South Park Primary School and given the opportunity to observe the first rate staff and pupils here in their normal working day and to see the excellent facilities at the school.

“I took part in a question and answer session with the P7 pupils, an experience which I thoroughly enjoyed. I was questioned on a broad range of topics from local issues affecting students themselves such as homework and education choices to wider social and political issues of national significance.

“I was highly impressed at how well informed, articulate and assertive this group of young people showed themselves to be. They are a credit to their parents, teachers and to their school. Indeed, the experience was not entirely different from taking questions in the Chamber –certainly a good reflection on these students!”
