The Middle and Senior Division debating teams of the College made an impressive showing in the first round hosted by Inaburra School on the evening of Tuesday 28 February 2018.
The following students took part:-
Our Senior Division teams were required to debate each other, so it was always going to be both a loss and a win for our College. Again, both teams performed admirably with another difficult topic.Our Middle Division teams made some highly impressive arguments in favour of a very difficult topic, and though they did not record a win, they made both Inaburra School and Macarthur Anglican College earn their points for the round.
We now looking forward to hosting Round 2 of the HICES Debating Competition on Thursday, 15 March 2018 from 2:35pm to 6:00pm. Students looking to add to their service to the College, including for the purpose of the Student Recognition Scheme, are invited to obtain a permission note for volunteers from Mr Gawthorne in the English & Drama Faculty staff room. Volunteers will be showing students and teachers from other schools around the College, as well as attending debates as audience members.
