Mr Chester said, "Recently I had a fabulous time catching up with the students at Boisdale Consolidated Primary School. We discussed the three levels of government and the process of lawmaking in Australia. The school's vibrant rural setting, hosting over 200 students, provided a terrific backdrop for our insightful conversation."
"The students had plenty of intriguing questions about politics and how the community can collaborate to achieve positive outcomes. A massive thanks to the teaching staff for inviting me, and congratulations on nurturing our next generation of young leaders!" Mr Chester said.
