Primary Schools Debating

This year we participated in the Primary Schools Debating Competition for the first time. This is a national event set up to build children’s confidence and to enrich their oral language and cognitive abilities.

We had great fun and much lively discussion debating such motions as “Ryan Air is the best way to travel” and “The Irish language is a dying tongue” .

We were delighted to reach the regional final which took place in February in Kilkenny Education Centre.
