Mock Council of Europe

In October, Carrickfergus College pupils Andrew Hay, Micheal Wright and Ashley Sedgwich (Year 14)  represented the school at the Mock Council of the European Union held in the Long Gallery, Parliament Buildings, Stormont. The guest speaker at the event was Reijo Kemppinen, head of the European Commission Representation in the U.K.

The event was attended by twenty eight schools from across Northern Ireland, representing the 27 member states, the European Commission and the Secretariat General. Our team represented Estonia during the debates on the EU’s approach to immigration, global warming and agricultural policy.
