Year 8 students have been taking part in a debating contest.

Students in the First Language Chinese and Kingston Chinese classes met each other for a series of debates, aimed at developing their public speaking skills.

They have spent the last two weeks preparing for the debate ‘Which is better, Disneyland or Ocean Park?’ The students had to think about the pros and cons and provide evidence to support their arguments.

It was a very worthwhile exercise, with lots of experience gained. The students all worked hard to support each other and are to be commended on their efforts.
