MYSP Visit
In April, John Walker, one of Whitburn Academy's former pupils, was elected as one of two Members of the Scottish Youth Parliament for the Almond Valley Constituency.
His constituency covers Fauldhouse, Longridge and Stoneyburn.
During assemblies held on week beginning 28th August, John spoke to our pupils about what the Scottish Youth Parliament does and how pupils can get in contact with himself and the other MSYP members from the local area if they had anything they wanted to discuss or bring up.
To find out more about the Scottish Youth Parliament and what it does, visit their website at Scottish Youth Parliament (opens new window)
