TY French debates!

TY French Debate PXL 20250107 151916579
NEWS / 8 January 2025

Throughout the first term, Transition Year students explored the topic of Gastronomy in French and ended their unit with a debate opposing 4x and 4y on the following motion : "Les services de livraison de plats à emporter tels que Deliveroo ont remplacé la convivialité qu'on trouve chez nous ou au bistrot".

Although both teams were nervous, they all spoke beautifully on "la convivialité" or the art of sharing food in good company. Judges from 5th year were impressed by their confidence and found the 4Y captain, Oliver, particularly clear and effective at arguing for the motion, winning the debate with his team (Lily and Ethan).
