Congratulations to our Year 11 Senior and Year 9 Junior Archdale Debating teams who each one their Grand Finals. Year 11 were affirmative on the topic “that, as a feminist parent, we would send our daughter to an all-girls school rather than a comparable co-ed school.” The Senior division of Archdale includes both Year 11 and Year 12 debaters, so it was particularly impressive for our team of Year 11s to win this division. Year 9 were also affirmative on the topic “that we regret the notion of a ‘dream job’.” SCEGGS was one of two schools to have three teams in the Grand Final, achieving second in the overall Archdale Shield.
