Senior and Junior Debating Update
Our debating program continues with students completing competition and in-house debating across both senior and junior levels. Senior debaters have now competed in four rounds of debates organised by the Debaters Association of Victoria and our Year 7’s have been preparing and participating in friendly in-house debates.
Our D Grade team comprising of Olivia Howes, Angus Jewell and Bridget Laird argued the affirmative stance on the topic that we should pursue life on Mars, whilst our B Grade team comprising of Sierra Benedict, Will Sacco and Lucy Cisnerios argued the affirmative stance on the topic that governments should ban sporting events that will not drug test athletes.
Our Year 7 debaters held an in-house debate on the topic that the cosmetics and fashion industries do more harm than good. Rose Bloomfield, Edith Cummins and Kiaya Lockhart represented the affirmative team whilst Rosalyn Hamilton, Sophie Vernon and Annie Turner represented the negative team.
During second Semester, our Year 7 and 8 debaters will get the opportunity to participate in debating training provided by the Debaters Association of Victoria and compete in online debates with other schools. More details will be posted on our Debating Google classroom.
