Debate Finals!

My students were involved in a debate competition the whole of last week organised by KDU College called the Dato' CQ Teo-KDU College Debate Challenge. Together with Ms Lydia, we trained the students and discussed the motions with them, spending HOURS and HOURS, even on weekends before the competition. They made it all the way to the finals, which is a huge achievement given that of the four of them, three have never debated in a competition of this style, and it is the first time since the challenge started two years ago that the school even made past the preliminaries. We lost to Chong Hwa in the finals, but I think it was a very worthy school to have lost to as the debate was a good one and it had been a very close fight.

Still, am damn proud of my kids!
