Touring Parliament House
“On Tuesday 15 March 2022, the Year 11 Legal Studies class had the most amazing opportunity to visit the South Australian parliament where The Honourable Rachel Sanderson MP gave us a tour. She talked about the history of the main two buildings, the Legislative Council, and the House of Assembly. She also explained to us about her role as Minister for Child Protection and gave us valuable advice on how to prepare ourselves for a career in politics – a law degree is very helpful! On the tour we met The Parliamentary Librarian who shared some very amusing stories of the history of library and the unique artefacts found there. We then went to the Centre of Democracy where we were able to consider different issues related to our democracy. Both venues were fascinating, and we are grateful to have had the opportunity to tour Parliament during the pandemic and just a few days before the state election.”
