The second Children's Council of Vidreres was officially constituted on Thursday, November 12th, with the participation of twelve 5th and 6th-grade primary school students from the Sant Iscle and Salvador Espriu public schools.

The children's representatives, chosen by their classmates, will debate and propose improvements in key areas such as mobility, sustainability, and civics during the 2026-2027 academic year. This initiative, now in its second year, aims to foster the participation of young people in the social and political life of the municipality.
The constitution ceremony, held yesterday, was attended by the Mayor of Vidreres and the Councillor for Education, who listened to the initial proposals from the council members. The Mayor tasked the children with studying and developing concrete proposals in the defined areas.
Throughout the year, the children will meet periodically with municipal representatives and council technicians to shape their ideas. At the end of the academic year, a final plenary session will be held to present the proposals developed by the children to the municipal government.
This project, driven by the Department of Education with support from the Girona Provincial Council, was designed by the Vidreres City Council's Program Unit, the managements and teaching staff of the local primary schools, and in collaboration with Malla d’Idees.
