Inter-School Debate

By Mr O'Meara

Three of our wonderful students - Isabelle Ambrose, Amalaini Nacagilevu, and Ruby Barker faced off against their undefeated opponents from Geelong Grammar on Thursday. Our star performers were arguing against the proposition that children should be banned from being influencers.

Both sides put in a stunning performance, however sadly, we lost to our opponents. Both Amalaini and Isabelle have made dramatic improvements in their debating performance this year, and Ruby made a stunning debut in her first-ever debate. The adjudicator commented that if she had an award for best monologue, she would have presented it to Isabelle for her performance.

While there will not be any more inter-school debates for us until 2024, students who are interested in getting debating experience should contact Mr O’Meara. There will be opportunity to debate in-school and not in front of an audience, too.
