Talking the talk!

STUDENTS from St Francis Xavier Senior Primary School in Blanchardstown showed they really can talk the talk when they won the recent Concern Primary Debating final.

The winning team comprising of Suhani Bhagat, Conrad Whelan and Iria Cordoba were selected from the school’s panel of debaters and researchers that also included Jessica Beagan, Michael Becker, Ava Dixon, Emmet Rogers and Lucy Sweeney.

The motion for the final that ‘food waste should be made illegal’ was keenly contested between St Kevin’s of Kilnamanagh and St Francis Xavier with the Dublin 15 school emerging as the champion debaters for 2019.
