Welcome back to Debating for Term 4

I can’t wait to see how the students all step up and WOW us this term.

There are certificates AND medallions to win this term.

PLC will start Monday 20 October from 3:30-4:45.  Welcome to all previous students and new debaters.  Saani Bennetts will be starting you off this term as I will still be away the first week at a conference.

Loreto Nedlands starts Tues 21 October from 2:30-3:30.  This is the term when all that hard work really shows!  Helene Fisher will be starting off the process at Loreto

St Hilda’s will begin debating on Wednesday 15 October from 3:30-4:30.  Saani Bennetts will be starting you off as well.

This is a reminder that AUSSIES love their comedy…so don’t forget to consider some playful arguments in your debate this term if that’s appropriate.

 

Grand Final Term 4 Topics

 

That humans are the most dangerous creatures

Exhibit A…….fly swat…….fly spray………..Fly bomb

but then there are the carefully trained flea circuses……..giving fleas everywhere a job.

That drifting along is better than planning

Well we do have debaters who could talk the leg off a chair…..but most of you will plan something……

That people should ride bicycles

      in circuses?   to work?   for fun?

How would our roads cope with 40 more bicycles? 100?

That we are too focused on food

Do you feel hungry just thinking about this topic…..? Is this a sign…?

Could we do more with world hunger if we focused on food more?

Welcome back, looking forward to seeing you all in the second week.
