Penticton-Summerland MLA Amelia Boultbee visited Michele Cumberland’s Grade 8 and 9 humanities classes at St. Carlo Acutis Legacy Academy, located on the Okanagan College campus in Penticton.

Legacy Academy, which opened its doors in September as an extension of Holy Cross School, operates in a wing within the college.

During her visit, Boultbee engaged with students in an open discussion about issues that matter to young people in the community. Students asked thoughtful questions on topics such as the cost of post-secondary education, the rising price of food, and safety at the local skate park.

The visit offered students an opportunity to learn firsthand about provincial government roles and responsibilities, and to share their perspectives with an elected representative.
