Debating
Well done to the following teams for winning their debates on Friday evening:
- Primary A ISDA
- Primary B ISDA
- Year 7 Eastside
- Year 8 ISDA
- Year 9 ISDA
- Year 10 ISDA
That now concludes the rounds of the ISDA 2024 competition, and all teams should be commended on a fantastic season.
A huge congratulations to our five teams who have made it through to the finals rounds: Primary B, Primary A, Year 8, Year 9, and Year 10. A special well-done also goes to Year 8 for coming first in their bracket.
Commiserations to the three teams that missed out – they did so by the narrowest of margins, with all three coming 5th in their group (with the top four teams progressing through).

The Archdale Debating Competition, run by IGSA, will begin on Tuesday afternoons and evenings in Week 4. In Archdale Years 7-9 debates conclude at 6.30pm, while Years 10-12 debates conclude at 7.30pm. We enter two teams in Years 7-9, so it is a fantastic opportunity to work with a smaller group. Please make sure that Imogen Harper and your coaches know if you would like to be a part of this competition.
