Students, teachers and parents from two Central Coast primary schools visited Parliament House in Canberra during the last sitting period of the 47th Parliament.
Visitors from Gosford Public School and Erina Heights Public School were greeted by Federal Member for Robertson Dr Gordon Reid.
Erina Heights visitors were also welcomed by House of Representatives Speaker Milton Dick.
“It was fantastic to welcome both schools to Parliament House in the last sitting week of the 47th Parliament,” Reid said.
“It has been an absolute privilege and honour to have been able to welcome hundreds of students to Parliament House during my three years as the Member for Robertson.

“Seeing students’ bright and happy smiles as they enter the building and marvel at its grandeur has been a highlight of this role.
“I hope that students have learned many great facts during their visits and have left with a deeper understanding of Australia’s system of government.
“My thanks to all the schools in Robertson who have said hello during their visits to Canberra over the past three years.
“I want to also acknowledge the outstanding Department of Parliamentary Services staff who are experts and provide a rich learning experience to visiting schools.”
