Manley Park Primary pupils take over the Pankhurst Centre…

Sixty ten year olds in one afternoon – no problem!

The Pankhurst Centre was delighted to open its doors to year six pupils from Manley Park Primary school.  Having just started the new academic year off with a project on the suffragettes and gender equality, they seized the opportunity to come see the home of Emmeline and her family for themselves and to share their thoughts on key issues of today.

In response to the question ‘What do we need to change over the next 100 years?’ they provided a very long and considered list of issues they care about to include tackling the gender pay gap,  equality, planting more trees, women’s rights, supporting diversity and banning single use plastic.

We look forward to seeing how they implement some of these changes within their own schools and communities in their passionate quest to make a difference…
