Year 8 MISA Debate
On Tuesday 29 November, the Year 8 MISA debaters achieved a decisive victory, arguing the negative case for the topic That films tell a story more effectively than books.
Left to right: Natalie S (3rd speaker), Rebecca M (2nd Speaker), Zali B (Madam Chair) Chaiyya R (1st speaker) and Elizabeth J (4th speaker)
An argument which ranged across topics including imagination, inclusiveness, diversity and the breadth of the human story, along with a nuanced understanding of the relationship between books and audiences, ensured a debate that was both entertaining and thought-provoking.
Our opposition, Macarthur Anglican, engaged well with these ideas with some sound arguments of their own.
Congratulations to Chaiyya R, Rebecca M, Natalie S, Elizabeth J and Zali B
