With one of the best results the White Oaks junior level debate team has shown, Strathdee and M'Hiri placed 5th in Canada out of nearly 50 teams representing schools across Canada. The pair also got to share a debate trophy, given to the top three teams from Ontario for helping the province earn bragging rights as the top province in Canada, White Oaks Secondary School teacher and debate coach Hamish Guthrie said. It was awarded to the province based on the total scores achieved by the top three teams of each province, he said. White Oaks also had a second junior team participate in the Junior National Debate Championships, hosted by University of Toronto Schools and De La Salle College. Grade 9 students Kashaf Salaheen and Jenny Hu placed in the middle of the pack. In the individual standings, Strathdee placed 15 out of about 90 speakers from across Canada. t s i l a i c e p S d r a Y k c a B r u o Y R NEW BOOK YOU ALL POOL INST TODAY!
