Proud Day for Foxrock Debating

Valiant performances from our three teams today in the Inter Loreto Debating Finals. Congratulations to Eve Byrne, Amelia Scallan, Ava Clarke, and Sophie Toole who battled hard in the semis and narrowly missed out on places in the final. Congratulations to our first years Vanessa Maloney and Emily Seery who crushed their semi final and reached the junior final and were pipped for second. A huge thank you to the girls, Mr Kehoe (Junior Co-ordinator), and Ms Lea (Senior Co-ordinator) for all their hard work and for doing our school proud. Among the adjudicators were Foxrock past pupils Mya Madigan, Lucy Mullins, Hilary Igbinomwanhia and Laura McMenamin – a lovely reflection of the strength and tradition of debating in Foxrock.
