Several schools from the area participated and, as a new league, we are extremely proud that our students fared so well! Our Grade 8 and 11 teams both made it to the Semi Finals while the Grade 10 team won their Play Off round after the Quarter Finals. Thank you to each and every student who participated in the Debating League this year. Seeing you grow and mature in your presentation, communication and cognitive skills has been a privilege. You have set a benchmark for our school and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for you!
