PS Debating Round 4-min

Cannons Debaters strike again!

Congratulations to the Grade 6 team from Cannons Creek Independent School for once again bringing immense pride to their school, upon defeat of the top Grade 7 team from WPPS! On Friday, 19 July, the team excelled in a high-pressure impromptu debate, held at St Joseph’s Marist College. The topic was “Cellphones, Chromebooks and laptops should be banned during school lessons”. Impromptu meant no guidance, and no research on the Internet – it was back to good old fashioned chatting about their ideas and thoughts.

Cannons Creek Grade 6 pupil, Grace Clarke, was named Best Speaker. Their outstanding performance has secured them a place in the quarter-finals.
