Debating team hosts third round

Pretty Beach Public School's debating team has hosted the third round of the Premiers Debating Challenge.

Brisbania Public School were the opposing team on July 30.

"Both teams did a fantastic job at debating the topic that male and female parents should be forced to spend equal amounts of time looking after their children," said Pretty Beach principal Ms Deborah Callendar.

The Pretty Beach team were the affirmative and therefore they needed to agree with the topic.

"Our debaters had great points, and although they spoke clearly and confidently with many rebuttals, Brisbania were the winning team on the day with only one point deciding the winner.

Pretty Beach will be debating Kincumber Public School during the final round of the Premiers Debating Challenge.
