Today all of the Primary 6 children participated in a Debating Workshop run by Mr David Smith, the Education Officer from the Stirling Smith Art Gallery & Museum. The children were given lots of interesting tips on how to participate in a successful debate and then were able to put their newly acquired skills to the test in a short series of debates on a variety of topics.
Several groups of children then debated a variety of current topics, and answered some very challenging questions from their peers!
The children thoroughly enjoyed their experience and are looking forward to developing their debating skills further this term.
