Year 6 Debate

Congratulations to our Year 6 debaters who spoke fluently and persuasively on Friday (top marks from Mrs Byrnes!). The motion ‘This House would ban scientific testing on animals’ was defeated by the slimmest of margins with 50 votes to 49 – a surprise result and largely based on the strength of the counter-arguments put forward by opposers Daisy, Rosie and Scarlet. Very well done to both teams and to chair, Henry, and timekeepers, Chloe and Arata.
