Debating

Last week our debating team from Alder and Kamilah class (5th and 6th) were busy in a debating competition with St. Colmcille’s Senior National School. It was our first debate and the motion (‘Climate Change is Not Our Problem’) was quite a challenge, as we had to agree with it! Both teams argued their points very well and in the end the judges awarded the win to St. Colmcille’s, but made a special mention to the quality of both team’s speeches. Well done to St. Colmcille’s on their win, and well done to both teams for having such an in depth debate. There will be four more rounds so plenty of chances to win debates!
