Inter-School Debate Competition at St. Joseph Academy
An Inter-School Debate Competition was held at St. Joseph Academy on Friday, the 9th of October 2026. Several reputed Schools, including Ann Mary, St. Patrick Academy, Convent of Jesus and Mary and others, participated in the Event. St. Jude’s School was proudly represented by Arijit Solanki, Aakriti Mittal and Alankrita Sharma. The Debate provided an excellent platform for Students to showcase their oratory skills, confidence and critical thinking abilities. The participants speaking For the motion presented their arguments with conviction, while those opposing it countered their views with equally strong and logical reasoning. What followed was a fascinating war of words, with both sides defending their stand confidently and presenting their perspectives so convincingly that each argument seemed right in its own way. Every time one team put forward a compelling point, the opposing team responded with an equally persuasive counterargument. This made the Debate truly engaging and left the audience appreciating the strength of both viewpoints. The clarity of thought, presence of mind, and ability to challenge each other's arguments made the competition intellectually stimulating. Our Students performed commendably, demonstrating confidence and a good understanding of the topic. The Competition offered them valuable exposure, encouraged them to think critically and helped them appreciate different perspectives. A special highlight was Alankrita Sharma winning the Best Interlocutor Award in the qualifying round, bringing pride to St. Jude’s School. Overall, the Event was a wonderful and enriching experience. It reinforced the importance of effective communication, logical reasoning, and respectful disagreement. The enthusiastic participation and sincere efforts of our Students made the occasion memorable and inspiring.
