Gladstone’s Sarah Chadwick has taken her seat in the 23rd Youth Parliament

Sarah Chadwick has spent the first week of her school holidays taking her place at the 23rd Youth Parliament. The opening of the 23rd YMCA Queensland Youth Parliament saw 93 young people from across Queensland take a seat in the Legislative Assembly Chamber. Each young person represents a Queensland electorate.   

Sarah, a student at Toolooa State High School, has been working hard since her nomination in April and becoming a member of the Health and Disability Services Committee.  Member for Gladstone, Mr Glenn Butcher MP, congratulated Sarah on playing their part in such an important event.  “For the last six months Sarah, as part of the Health and Disability Services Committee, has been helping research, write and draft their Bill ready to submit to Parliament.” Mr Butcher said.
