Newport: National Children's Day celebrated at Cathedral
The event, attended by Police and Crime Commissioner Jane Mudd, saw the youngsters perform songs and poems, tackling subjects such as racism in communities.
Commissioner Mudd and Chief Constable Mark Hobrough also hosted a group of Heddlu Bach from Nant Celyn Primary School at Gwent Police headquarters.
The children toured the building, visited the control room, and had the opportunity to question the Commissioner and Chief Constable.
They also received a talk from the dog handling team and a special demonstration from police dog Ruby.
Police and Crime Commissioner Jane Mudd said: "National Children's Day celebrates the importance of healthy childhoods and protecting the rights and freedoms of children and young people.
"One of my commitments as Police and Crime Commissioner is that I will do all that I can to ensure that children and young people are listened to and that what they are telling us shapes the way we deliver services.
"I am working on a Children's Charter which will set out the way my office will work with children and young people going forward".
