JMSS C Grade (Yr10) debaters
On 28th August Team 1 C Grade debaters won their first final at Haileybury against Woodleigh. They all spoke incredibly well on the topic ‘That, assuming it is possible, all students should have a mix of AI and human teachers’. They were affirmative.
They now progress to the next final on Wednesday night at Northcote HS.
Congratulate tonight’s speakers -
Sophia Butrev
Inuki Abeysinghe
Ksenia Kuresheva
The team is also made up of Adam Wong, Arnav Badhate and Charvi Thimapuram.
Sadly Charvi isn’t eligible to debate in the finals as she debated for too many other JMSS teams during the season to fill gaps but she has been a major contributor to their path to finals and preparation. The whole team attended to support the speakers as did one of our Debating Captains Connor Russo. It was great to see their team support.
Sophia was also awarded Best Speaker.
If you’d like to know how they’re planning to use AI to lighten our workload, do ask them. They had some good arguments.
