Debating

VUC will be represented in the Joynt Scroll Debating Contest by Frank O'Flynn and Kevin O'Brien, two of the Debating Society's most competent and experienced speakers. They have drawn the affirmative against Lincoln College, the subject selected being: "That the development of secondary industries should be a fundamental aim of this country."

The Bledisloe Medal Oratory Contest, which is held every third year, will take place at the same time as Winter Tournament. Our speakers will be Brendan O'Connor, a former winner of Plunket Medal and runner-up in the last Bledisloe Medal Contest, and Kevin O'Brien, also a winner of Plunket. The subject must relate to New Zealand.
