IN PICTURES: Mayor hosts meet-and-greet in Derry's Guildhall for Thornhill College prefects

Pupils visited the Guildhall to meet with the Mayor of Derry City and Strabane District Council, Cllr Ruairí McHugh followed by a tour of the building

Mayor McHugh said he was delighted to meet with the Junior Prefect Team. “It was a real pleasure to welcome the Junior Prefects from Thornhill College to the Guildhall. The students showed great interest and enthusiasm as they learned about the history and significance of this iconic building during their guided tour. I was very impressed by their thoughtful questions and genuine curiosity about how local government works. Visits like this are so important as they give young people a real insight into how they can make a positive difference in their city.” (Photos: Martin McKeown)
