Congratulations go to our formidable Year 9 debating team Melissa Verwey (Chair), Tabitha Spiers (Main Speaker) and Saphire Almond-Neate (Vote of thanks), who were in the national final at the Royal Concert Hall in Nottingham on Sunday 12 May.
 






Following their outstanding win in the regional final at the Queen’s College in Taunton on Saturday 30 March, where Tabitha also won ‘Best Speaker’ the team spoke extremely well and confidently, but were just pipped at the post. Saphire won the ‘Vote of Thanks’.

We are all very proud of their fantastic performance on the topic of ‘What happened to Feminism?’  It is an outstanding achievement to get into the national final of the competition. 

Well done to all of them!
