Hey Everybody!
The blog's been quite dead for a while so an UPDATE this time round!
So the team got 2nd place in the Beurel Debate Challenge behind Catholic High! It wasn't too bad. So Kudos to the team: Gillian, Holly, Aisyah, Vanessa and of course Chloe who'd helped us with all the trainings and everything!!

To those who didn't get to see us debate, here's the pairings that we got.

1st Preliminary:
Catholic High (Prop) VS Katong Convent (Oppo)

2nd Preliminary:
Katong Convent (Prop) VS St.Anthony's Canossian (Oppo)

3rd Preliminary:
SJI (Prop) VS Katong Convent (Oppo)

Semi-finals:
SJI (Prop) VS Katong Convent (Oppo)

Grand Finals:
Katong Convent (Prop) VS Catholic High (Oppo)

So we won the 2nd, 3rd and semi rounds!!! Pity we didn't get to go against SJII and St.Pats but it's all good!!

That's about it!!! :)

Cheers,
Debate team

Hey everyone!
Today, we had an exhibition debate for the sec 1s and 2s and Vanessa and I did a presentation. KUDOS to all the debaters namely, Diane, Jacq, Chloe, Jie Yun, Grace and Kai Ning. Good job y'all!! haha. Ok anyways, the floor debate was not a very successful one but it doesn't matter because we tried our best. Thanks to Marshall too for donating $10 77th Street vouchers to us.
The motions for this Saturday's debate is up so please everybody remember to check the debate board. Sec 1 and 2 debaters, spread the word about debate and the SJI compeition.

For Gillian, Aisyah, Vanessa, Chloe, Holly and Clara the motion is:

Prepare for both sides because it will be an impromptu debate. This week it's Deborah.

See y'all this saturday!

Cheers,
Clara

Debate funds

2008-06-19T16:10:00.002+08:00

Hello debaters,

The debate funds have been lowered to $2 per month.
Please pay once school reopens and every start of the month.
Sec 1s, please pass all your funds to Jie yun as she is the representative.
Please pay the full amount straight away and not in small amounts slowly to prevent confusion on whether you paid already.
Some people still haven't paid last month's funds so if you know who you are, please pay the funds.
Debate rocks.

Chloe :D

2008-06-18T21:28:00.003+08:00

Hey everyone.
So this is the new skin for the debate blog. Not to shabby is it? Haha. I did it, with little to no help from Vanessa. Ok, compliments to her for the tagbox.
Anyway, tomorrow there is training for Clara, Vanessa, Aisyah, Chloe, Gillian and Holly, so be there on time!
Hope to see more people attend this blog on a weekly basis, even during school days because we all know that some of you forget to go check the school debate board and end up rushing to finish the debate speeches. So the internet is also handy in times of situations like this. Update yourself via this blog and make it a habit so you won't forget!
Happy last week of Holidays!

Cheers!
Clara
