Brackenfield School are finalists in Forfar debating contest
Brackenfield School recently competed against St Helen’s College, London in a fiercely contested inter-school Forfar Education debating online competition.
We are so proud of Aoife, Eva, Levi and Rory for their incredible achievement; securing a position in the final of the inter Forfar Education debating competition. Beating 8 other schools to the final and then pitting their wits against St Helen's Hillingdon, London to debate the motion: "If children ran the world, it would be a better place" required phenomenal levels of intelligence, maturity and a rigorous knowledge of current affairs and geo politics.
Despite the closeness of the competition, the judges declared St Helen's to be the winners. Our debating team were extremely gracious in defeat and we, as a school community, offer our congratulations to @sthelenscollege_hillingdon for successfully opposing the motion.
