The mayor dropped in at Scawsby Junior Academy – previously Saltersgate Junior School – to face questions from pupils about community issues as well as personal highlights from her term in charge.
The school’s Junior Leadership Team led the event – a group of children who are elected to represent the views of all pupils and work together to improve their school by raising vital funds and supporting pupils through anti-bullying initiatives.

"This was a highlight for the JLT, who were thoroughly gripped by the answers from their carefully thought-out questions.
Afterwards, JLT members took the Mayor for a guided tour around the school.
