Debate Mate Visit Oxford University

Southwold were one of the top 8 schools in the UK invited to take part in the Grand Finale of the Debate Mate Cup at Oxford University. They all spoke eloquently and confidently, winning the first round but sadly did not go through to the final round. Well done for all your efforts!
