Debating Teams Grow in Confidence

Secondary

King’s Christian College had another successful night of debating on 19 May, winning two of their three debates. One Junior team (KCP3) had a bye. Two Junior teams now remain unbeaten with one round in the regular season to go. The Intermediate team debated at AB Paterson College and the Junior teams debated at St Stephen’s College. This was the first round of 'Secret Subject' topics. All students represented the College well. The teams were well supported by parents and family.

The moot was: ‘Children should be able to start working part-time from a younger age.’
