On 5th November, the SSCE Cymru Programme Manager, Millie, joined Never Such Innocence in a special visit to the Senedd.
Service children from Ysgol Golwg Pen Y Fan, Crickhowell High School and Priory CiW School in Powys, and Ysgol Glan Clywd in Denbighshire, were invited to the Senedd to meet with the Cabinet Secretary for Education, Lynne Neagle MS. The Service children shared poems written during Month of the Military Child and spoke about what it's like to have a parent in the Armed Forces and how it impacts them in their education. After the meeting, they had a tour of the Senedd, followed by an ice cream!
One of the Service children shared: "It was really cool for someone to recognise us as military kids and care enough to learn and understand us as not just a group, but individuals."
