Denny's Senior Debating Championships - Grand Final

Congratulations to Transition Year students Ciara Gorman and Aodhán Peelo who gave a great performance in the Grand Final of the Denny's Senior Leinster Championships on Monday, 28th March, which took place in the Astra Hall in UCD. They spoke as 1st Proposition to the motion That This House Believes Violence Should Be a Legitimate Form of Civil Disobedience against teams and individuals from St Conleth's, Loreto Balbriggan, CBC Monkstown, Gonzaga and Belvedere.
   Unfortunately they did not bring home the trophy but went on to battle it out in the National Repecharge the following Sunday and took second place, in 2nd Proposition to the motion TTH Believes Nations Should Be Allowed to Intervene in Humanitarian Crises Without Approval From the UN.
