Public Speaking and Debating
House Debating
It is once again time for House Debating!
This year, the junior topic is that Australia should implement a four-day school week, and the senior topic is that celebrities have too much influence over teenagers.
Each team will have three speakers giving a three-minute speech. The competition will be held at lunchtime on:
- Tuesday, 9 September for Juniors
- Thursday 11 September for Seniors

I hope to see students from all Year levels there, whether you are competing or supporting your House. Students are to contact their Head of House or House Captains to sign up. If you have any questions, feel free to ask myself or Ms MacLeod.
