CSDA Quarter Finals

On 24 June, last term, we welcomed 160 guests from ten schools across greater Sydney for the Catholic Schools’ Debating Association Quarter Final.

Our Year 7 Debaters, Chantelle, Siana and Amadee challenged hard against their opponents, Catherine McAuley School, Westmead. They were narrowly defeated but learned a great deal from the experience. Thank you to the many St Pat’s girls who generously gave their time to chair, timekeep and usher. Thank you to Mrs Ibbett for her presence and assistance on the night, along with Ms Renshaw and the maintenance team who ensured that we were the hostesses with the mostesses.
