P1 - P7 have enjoyed taking part in a 'live questionnaire' run by the Love Letham Children's Commission. They have shared their views about the local community and learned more about research skills and data collection. #RRS #effectivecontributors

A big well done to our Love Letham Children's Commissioners who presented their findings from the research question: What makes children feel unsafe in Letham? They spoke with confidence, took on leadership roles and contributed interesting ideas. #learnerparticipation
