On Tuesday 23rd November, the ICOM Senior Debating Team were treated to a celebratory lunch to say thank you and congratulations on their incredible debating and public speaking efforts over the course of 2021.
Participation awards were handed out to all teams across Years 9, 10 and 11 and each student had their photo taken with Principal Dr Abdul M. Kamareddine and our Debating Coordinator Mr Carrington.
On Tuesday, 25th May our Senior Secondary students Huzaifa Qidwai and Maryam Al-Gburi attended the Plain English Speaking Award State Heats at Suzanne Cory High School.
Our Secondary Debating teams have had a busy Term 2 with Rounds 2 and 3 of Interschool Debating taking place recently, and as always, our debaters did exceptionally well in representing the College.
On Wednesday the 10th of March the first round of debating for our Secondary Debating Teams took place at Williamstown High School. Islamic College of Melbourne had 10 teams compete over 4 divisions and managed to come home winning 3 debates. A special mention to Layal El Rifai and Razan Kamareddine who both won best speaker in their respective debates despite being on the losing team. Well done to them and all who took part.
