On Friday 31st May, McCallums Hill Public School debaters had their first debate in the Sydney Schools Debating Competition. Our students, debated against the students from Kingsgrove Public School. We had two amazing teams representing our school. The topic for the debate was 'That TV is better than books'. Both our teams were the negative team.
Our teams were:
Team A:
1st speaker: Leon K.
2nd speaker: Wairua L.
3rd speaker: Leena Z.
Team Advisor: Tia E.
Team B:
1st speaker: Aneet B.
2nd speaker: Reneem E.
3rd speaker: Jayson K.
Team Advisor: Carmen S.
Team A unfortunately lost this debate and Team B were successful in gaining a win.
All students provided strong arguments, spoke with confidence and tried their best. Well done!!
Both Mrs Vajdevski and Mrs Halabi are very proud of the students who represented our school in the debating competition.
