Debate Mate With Years 5 and 6

Children in years 5 and 6 attended the launch of Debate Mate 2021 at the Emmanuel Centre on 3rd November along with many other primary schools across London. The children were able to watch a live debate and ask questions to the panel. The children were inspired by the debate and are ready to start their club with their Debate Mate mentor. “My favourite part was when the judges came.”
