On the 9th of the June 2022, we competed in a debate against Sefton High School. The topic for the debate was “Schools should avoid letting children deal with contemporary political issues.’ Our team was on the negating team and we successfully smashed them. Our first speaker Jaydah, second speaker Sireen, third speaker Misk, scribe Hamidah and helpers, Rihanna and Fatima all contributed to our victory. The adjudicator gave us beneficial feedback such as applying relevance to the topic and linking to the team model. Definition is crucial (influences the debate) and the evidence links back to reality, expanding on the examples. We are all keen and looking forward for round 2 of our journey debating!
