Because we had a full class on Monday, we sat down as a class and set up the teams, moots and debates that will take place in a couple of weeks.
Teams
Team 1: Lewis, Ella and Timo
Team 2: Jackson, Millie and Jacob
Team 3: Ben, Taane and Wilson
Team 4: Logan, Neve and Bella R
Team 5: McKay, Olly and Scarlett
Team 6: Jenna, Bella S, Amber and Kriti
Team 7: Sammy, Amelia and Sam
Moots and Matchups
That all New Zealanders should have access to free healthcare for the duration of their lives in New Zealand.
Affirmative: Team 3 Negative: Team 1
That the traditional working week should be shortened to four days.
Affirmative: Team 4 Negative: Team 7
That Wanaka should operate an international airport.
Affirmative: Team 6 Negative: Team 2 and Team 5
Because of the uneven numbers in the class, we will run two debates on the final moot. As team 6 has four members, they will select two speakers to present their speeches twice, however, they will only be assessed on their first attempt in order to keep things equal for all students.
