Organising the debate structure during prep time
Throughout Term 4 online learning, a select few members of our Junior and Senior debating teams participated in the 2021 USyd Debating Schools Tournament. These students had the opportunity to compete against schools all across NSW and receive feedback from some of the state’s foremost debating adjudicators.
While all teams are to be commended for their efforts, special congratulations goes to our Junior team, consisting of Ewan McDonald, James Peate and Yannick Hott, who won the majority of their debates and only narrowly missed out on the finals.
We look forward to participating in this competition in 2022!
