Brisbane South Youth Parliament

About the event

The Brisbane South Youth Parliament was held on Friday 8 August 2025 at Parliament House, Brisbane.

The event, hosted by the Queensland Parliament, gave Year 5 and 6 students the opportunity to learn more about how the Queensland Parliament operates by participating as 'Youth Members'.

Students who were allocated a speaking role either:

  • debated a motion,
  • spoke in an adjournment debate, or
  • provided a private members' statement on an issue within the jurisdiction of the Queensland Parliament.


Some students were allocated a non-speaking or scripted role.
