On Saturday the 14th of September, we ran the Cooney Lees Morgan Bay of Plenty British Parliamentary tournament!
Our adjudicators were thoroughly impressed by the talent on display, especially given many competitors were debating in the British Parliamentary (BP) format for the first time.
Congratulations to Tauranga Boys College (Ollie Farquharson and James Bunyan) for taking out the Grand Final in a 4-1 split decision. Congratulations also to Mount Maunganui College, John Paul College, and Tauranga Boys College, who all made it through to the Grand Final.
We’d like to give a massive thank you to our sponsor, Cooney Lees Morgan. Cooney Lees Morgan have supported debating in the Bay of Plenty throughout the year, and we wouldn’t have been able to run this event without their help. We’d also like to thank Tauranga Boys College for hosting the competition.
