An Intra-Club Debate Competition was organized on 30th April and 1st May 2023 by Ms. Jaya Majumder, Debate Coach, and the Debate Trainers, Victoria Honoridez, Azhar Muhammed, Aryan Dubey, Drishti Tibrewal and Krish Nagrani. The competition saw newly trained debaters from grades 7 – 12 with 28 teams having 103 debaters.
The purpose of the competition was to provide a platform for students to showcase their debating skills, build confidence, and develop their critical thinking and public speaking abilities. It was an opportunity for them to put the skills they learned from school workshops to the test.
Before the break to the Semi Finals, the debaters competed in 4 rounds of intense research-based topics; whether it’s worth pursuing financial stability over your passions and whether or not the teenagers of today should lead social movements that concern the world.
The Intra-Club Debate Competition was a huge success, it opened an avenue for students to demonstrate their abilities and learn from one another. The participants got excellent experience in the spheres of debate and their first exposure to competitive debate, all of which would benefit them in their future academic and professional endeavors.
