This term, our Year 7 and 8 debating teams have been competing against other schools for the MISA Debating Competition. Well done to our students who have displayed enthusiasm, growth, and learning every round. 

Some of the topics that students have debated this term include:

• That we should should start the school day later
• That the grass is greener on the other side
• That we should raise the legal age to drive
• That we should selectively stream classes according to ability

All our debaters have diligently approached each topic, critically considering what arguments to present, researching statistics, writing, and then practising their speeches. Most of our debaters in these teams are new to debating, so they are commended for their efforts.

We look forward to updating the College as the competition progresses into Term 4!
