Debating

The Debating team have been very busy this term. Students in Year 8 and 9 have been working hard and competing against other schools, debating topics such as “That we should abolish standardised testing (e.g. NAPLAN)”, and “That refugees should have full access to the Australian welfare system”. Both of our debating teams have been very successful and were excellent representatives of the school. Of our two teams that we entered, one team finished second in our region, and the other team finished first in our region.

 

The team that finished first (pictured) have progressed to the elimination finals! Well done!
