Debating News

We are well and truly into the 2023 debating season. Having just past the halfway point of the season it is awesome to see the enthusiasm and dedication our teams are showing. 

I would like to personally thank the following people who have helped the smooth running of debating this season and who I will continue to call upon for the rest of the year: 

Our two Captains, Natalie Broom, and Gabriella Michalopoulos who have been running regular workshops at Lunch and Recess with the younger students to hone their skills. Nat and Gabi also greatly assist me in the coordination of students on the debate nights. 

A lot of work goes on behind the scenes, the following staff have volunteered their time to help coach, adjudicate, and cater, Rachael Colreavy, Virginia El-Koura, Andrew Hallman, Ang Lama, Rebecca Franklin, Alex Nomikos, Jen Dove, Leoni Hopkins and especially Jen Mathews and Mel Alvarez.

And of course all of the students who put in the effort each week to drive MSCW to victory.
