Often I have school students enquiring about my role as the Member for Cook and Prime Minister.
Some students also ask personal questions about my hobbies, interests and family life; my answers to their questions are listed below…

As one of 151 Members of the House of Representatives from all around Australia, I spend about 18 weeks a year in Canberra. When Parliament sits we debate with other Members of Parliament about legislation; question Ministers about the work that they are doing; give speeches and vote on new or amended legislation
Outside Parliament I attend lots of meetings and events with people who have particular issues they want to discuss or problems to be solved
When I am in my electorate I meet with constituents, attend events or visit local schools and businesses. The people in my Electorate of Cook are important to me
I love that my Electorate boasts the four Bate Bay beaches which are supported by four great Surf Clubs powered by a dedicated team of volunteers. I mostly enjoy hearing all the great stories from constituents about the community organisations they run or attend
