Mock Trial News
The newly-formed Mock Trial team commenced the year in a civil matter against Sylvania High last week. As the plaintiff, the girls had to prove negligence in an equestrian event, which they were able to do with success. Despite narrowly losing the points to the defence team, the girls performed extremely well, and the presiding magistrate was very impressed with the advocacy of both sides.
Well done to Lilyana Mitrevska and Siena Taouk (barristers), Sofia Awad and Brianna Serrao (witnesses), Jessica Carlisle (solicitor) and Zara Sly (magistrate’s clerk).
The next round will be a criminal case in May.
