Concern Primary Debating Competition February 2018

On Monday 5th February 2018, St Johns N.S. took part in the Concern Primary Debating Competition held in Tralee Education Centre. The team of six 6th class pupils was made up of Ella Hussey, Enya Schmidt, Matthew Zheng, Alex Moore-Gruzdys, Oisín Bras and Gemma Meyer.

The motion being debated was ‘Ireland is the greatest country in the world to live in’ and we were opposing the motion. The opposition on the day was Knockanes NS, Killarney. After a super debate with great points made by both sides, our team were extremely unlucky to lose out narrowly. The team were a credit to St Johns and can hold their heads up high! Well done!
