Students design election campaigns in mock poll
Shaarei Torah held a mock poll at the school recently to teach students how to run an election and how to vote. The class divided into four groups of four, and came up with manifestos that could be sold to the other students in exchange for votes.

The winners were treated to a discussion session and hot chocolate with ward 72 councillor Lionel Greenberg (whose area includes Glenhazel and Linksfield), and Member of Parliament Darren Bergman.
Bergman remarked afterwards that it was refreshing to hear what worked and did not work in the students’ campaigns.
