SENIOR DEBATING UPDATE

Congratulations to Joshua Kieran-Glennon (5th Year) and Kevin Heavey (6th Year) who represented the College as individuals in the Quarter-Finals of the Leinster Senior Schools Debating Competition in U.C.D. Debating in different rooms, they both proposed the motion that “This House Regrets the Rise of the Eurozone”. Both Kevin and Joshua progressed to the Semi-Final of the competition. Kevin will debate on Monday, 10th March and Joshua on Tuesday, 11th March.

At the Junior Competition, our team of Oisin Ryan and Steven Ryan (both Second Year), and individual Kevin O’Donnell (Third Year) will debate in the Quarter-Finals this Thursday (6th March) in U.C.D. on the motion that “This House would not allow the Unemployed to decline a Job Offer in times of Mass Unemployment”.

I wish all the boys well in their forthcoming debates and thank Mr Sheil and Ms Dobbyn for their encouragement and preparation of the boys.
