Mock Council - Student Program

The Mock Council Student Program has been paused in response to the municipal election season. The program will resume virtually once the election has taken place and a member of City Council is appointed to the program. 

The City of Leduc Mock Council program is a wonderful way to introduce students to the role and function of Municipal Government. The program provides students with an opportunity to role play Mayor, Council and city’s administrative staff for a couple of hours, providing them with basic knowledge of how city government works.

During the 2018/19 school year, we had approximately 500 students from 20 grade six classes representing all 11 elementary schools. With the popularity of the program, the City of Leduc also hosted classes in 2019/20 and will continue to host virtual classes in the 2021/22 school year.

Please take a moment to review the following information:

In addition to the above documents, you may wish to see real Council and Committee of the Whole Agendas and Minutes, along with information about our current Mayor and Council Members.
