Junior Debating: Round Two

Megan Nightingale —

Another successful round of debates for our Year 9 and 10 students.

The debate this week was about Social Media Influencers. Teams had to argue whether or not it was better to be Tik Tok famous or a regular teenager! Some interesting arguments arose around privacy, mental health and popularity. We had 5 teams take away wins. With HGHS Deathgrips and HGHS Lin Manuel Miranda maintaining their winning streak for the second round in a row. 

The following teams won their debate:
