This week saw a team of Year 10 students joining a host of other regional schools at the University of Liverpool to pit their wits in the Ethics Cup regional tournament.

This competition sees teams discussing ethical issues of public concern, and isn’t a conventional debate.

The St Julie’s team faced students from Broughton Hall and Belvedere, winning one of those matches convincingly. The topics debated included saviour children, nuclear weapons, school strikes and charity donations. 

It wasn’t quite enough to secure a place in the next round, but we congratulate Libby, Yasmin, Imogen, Olivia, Martha and Georgie on a great performance!
