Debating trip to St Mary's College, Dundalk

On the 24th October 2018 Chanel College, together with CUS, Lesson Street were delighted to accept an invitation to visit fellow Marist school, St Mary's College, Dundalk and participate in a morning of debating. Chanel's second year debating team comprised mainly of seasoned professionals, Adam Burke, Dean Kinsella, Alex Dunne and Will Davies. All students spoke with fluency and conviction.

Cian Dunne Cromwell, Josh Herbert , Tobi Jinad and Conor Crowley represented transition year, debating with vibrancy and confidence. Chanel had a triumphant day, with Will Davies managing to secure first place (for the second year running!) and Cian Dunne Cromwell placing third.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the English department of St Mary's, Dundalk (especially Ms Kinch) for the warm welcome our debaters and supporters received on the day. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
