Debating News

Despite the interruptions to the debating rounds, the debating team at Epping Secondary College has still been working very hard! Unfortunately, we were unable to participate in the final debate of the first round of the competition that was held online on Thursday, 5th August. The topic for this round was ‘That television programs that glorify the military (e.g. SAS) should not be broadcast’. Our team had to argue on the negative side of the argument. Although we were unable to put our arguments forward and participate in the debate, the team worked hard to establish a compelling case. We are now waiting patiently to find out whether or not we have made it into the finals rounds for the competition and we have our fingers crossed! If you see any of the debating team in the schoolyard, make sure to wish them luck!
