Debating – BRC and Holy Child Killiney mini-MACE

On Tuesday September 20th, five students: Daniel Burns (2nd Year) Brian Carroll, Rossa Clonan, Jamie Browne-Lynch and Tom Hayden (all 3rd Year) competed in the Holy Child Debating Competition.

The motion was: “This House Believes that Funding for Political Parties Should Be Tied to Diversity”.

Tom Hayden was named the best speaker in Room 2.

Daniel Burns and Rossa Clonan were on the winning teams in their respective rooms.

We look forward to hosting the next round of this debate in Blackrock College later in the year.

Next up, we have the Junior versus Senior Debate and starting in October, the UCD Debates organised by UCD Law Society and the UCD Literary and Historical Society.

We thank Ms Pierce for her facilitation of this opportunity and preparation of the boys.
