ENGLISH DEBATE COMPETITION
Debate is a part of public speaking. A good debater has to convince a large audience with his/her viewpoint. These points may be either in agreement or in opposition to popular sentiments. Clarity of thoughts and knowledge of the subject of debate helps an individual to put forward his/her argument confidently, while facing a huge crowd. In view of this, Inter-house English Debate Competitions were held in our school on 17th and 25th November, 2017 for the Senior (Class VII-X) and Junior (Class IV-VI) category, respectively. There were two participants each from every house in both the categories. The topic of the debate for Senior category was ‘Private cars should be banned’ and for Junior category was ‘Watching television is good’. The participants were well prepared for the debate. Everyone tried to put in his best effort to win the competition. The efforts of the participants were appreciated by the Principal. He encouraged the students to take part enthusiastically in such activities, whenever they are conducted in the school. The result of the competition is as follows:-
