South Peninsula debaters come out tops
Southern Mail
|April 30, 2025
Southfield library, in partnership with Meadowridge library, hosted a debating competition on Wednesday, April 16, with 15 pupils going head to head on a range of topics.
This is the second competition of its kind at the library. Last year, Southfield, Meadowridge and Tokai libraries hosted the first annual inter-school debating competition.
The topics under debate were only revealed on the day, adding an extra challenge to the competition.
This year the topics debated included: whether harsher punishments should be mitigated against police than general citizens, child labour and changing the legal voting age from 18 to 16.
