Do you ever feel that you have strong opinions about things that are going on around you but you never get a chance to express them?
In Debate, you will have the opportunity to put forward your thoughts and feelings about issues which affect you directly as well as the people around you and the world we live in. You will get a chance to use your thinking skills to weigh up evidence, and be able to discuss, defend and argue in a clear and precise way. You will learn how other people reason and think, and it will teach you to be a bit more sensitive towards other people’s feelings and opinions.
Communication is key –not only for you to be understood by your audience, but to be able to persuade them with precise and valid arguments, and, most importantly, to build your self-confidence when you put forward your ideas.
Students who are eagerly searching for a place where they can be themselves and have their voices heard should certainly consider joining the Debate Team.
The Debate Team will meet once a week to learn how to research about topics of your interest, organize your own thoughts and ideas and work together as a Team.
We are waiting for you!
