Fort Street’s Year 9/10 Debate Team Bounces Back into the competition!

On Monday the 15th of August 2022, our Year 9/10 Debate Team debated against Sydney Secondary High School, Balmain for our third round of the Premier’s Debating Competition. The topic we were given was that “the Australian Prime Minister should be elected by the people rather than by their political party” and we were given the negative stance to argue.

Thanks to Johnathan Bonnice, Galileo Lima, Chloe O’Keefe and Min Park’s strong understanding of Australia’s democratic system and up-to-date knowledge on the issues that surrounded our latest Federal election campaign, they manage to win the debate for our school.
