Class of 2026: Teacher vs Student Debate

On Wednesday 16 September, our Year 12 debaters went up against their teacher mentors in our Staff vs Student Debate, a beloved tradition in the lead up to Graduation. This year’s topic, “ That students work harder than teachers” generated some interesting discussion from both sides.

Representing the negative team, the teachers attempted to defend themselves against the student team, arguing that their job was harder. 

Despite the teacher’s efforts, it was the students who emerged victorious after deliberation from our adjudicators. 

The Staff vs Student Debate was a thrilling showcase of immense wit and insight, leaving the audience with a good source of entertainment.

Thank you to everyone involved for making this a great success, and a memory we will deeply cherish!
