This year was the school’s thirteenth year of involvement. The team faced St. Flannans college from Ennis, Co. Clare in the National Finals. They opposed the motion ‘Africa rising is a false dawn’. Other issues debated by this year’s team include Global Population Growth, China’s involvement in Africa, the World Cup and Olympics in Brazil and Climate Change.
