Mr Chester said, "There were plenty of topics covered from local timber jobs through to the voice to Parliament and my hobbies away from work. It was terrific to spend some time with the students and it was certainly more respectful than the Question Time I normally experience in Canberra. Well done to all the students and staff, good luck for the rest of the school year."
