Debating Quarter Finalists!

Our debating team participated in the Quarter Final of the Premier's Debating Challenge for Years 5 and 6 against Sturt Public School's Black team on Thursday 5 September.

Our team consisting of Emily, Jesse, Miriam and Zara put up a strong fight opposing the topic "that debating should be compulsory in primary school" building a good case, giving solid rebuttal. Although we didn't win on the day our students can be pleased with their efforts.

We thank Mrs Jenna Downey for organising the event and Mrs Zita Denholm, the adjudicator for her help and enthusiasm.
