Victory in Slovenia

Emily Pearce from The Heathland School, Ben Lewy from Habadashers' Aske's School for Boys and Tom O'Reilly from Dulwich College went through the whole tournement undefeated, argueing motions such as 'The EU needs its own Army' and 'This House would stop EU expansion'. The competition, held in Ormoz, Slovenia, contained twenty four teams from across Europe. Emily Pearce was placed the Best Speaker of the competition, closely followed by Tom and Ben in second and third.
