Books and buddies celebrated

Our 6th class 'buddies' celebrated the end of Book Week recently by making book marks with their Lower First (kindy) buddies.  This was done as part of their regular Friday afternoon buddy session.

Our 6th class leadership positions include the role of Buddy Monitor and each term two senior students have the opportunity to plan activities and games and set them up for the Lower First buddies and the other 6th class students.  The activities are supervised by teachers, but all the senior students love the opportunity to spend time with our youngest students, whether it be playing Duck Duck Goose, reading activities, craft stations or tabloid sports.

John Colet School wins debate final by a whisker

John Colet School versed the Alexander School in the Year 6 Forest Inter-schools debating finals this term.  Alexander School had won the previous two years, so they were formidable opponents. The adjudicators commented that the standard of debating from both teams was on a par with high school teams, rather than primary.

The topic was "If you see someone breaking the law, you should tell."   John Colet had the negative, which the judges said was a difficult case to argue, but the team's use of of global examples of petty laws, and the argument that draconian policing increases fear in society, were good ones.   

After a nailbiting battle of wits and words, John Colet School was judged the close winner!

Well done to all the debaters throughout the inter school debating season. Thanks also to Mrs Crewe, our gifted and talented coordinator, for her coaching.
