Debating

Congratulations to the Year 8, Year 9, Year 10, and Senior B ISDA teams for making the ISDA Octo-Finals! These debates will take place over the next two Fridays, all at their usual times.

This Friday, Year 8 and Year 9 will head to The Scots College. The bus will leave SCEGGS at 5pm to take them to Scots, and all debaters will need to be picked up at Scots at the Victoria Street entrance. Unfortunately, Scots will not be allowing spectators for these debates.

Next Friday, the Year 11 Senior B team will go to Wenona for their debate.

The final round of Eastside is also this Friday. The bus will leave for Sydney Boys High School at 4:45pm, and all debaters will need to be picked up at Sydney Boys High School.
