The staff and judges were impressed by the passion, eloquence and maturity of all the students \u2013\u00a0and by how kind, humble and positive they were towards their opponents. <\/span><span lang=\"EN\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN\">We\u2019re very proud of our debating team at Brighton Girls and Miss Mackey has seen amazing progress from its beginnings three years ago. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN\">Although the team did not make it to the final, they were fantastic hosts and represented the school fiercely yet gracefully. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN\">Congratulations to Kensington Prep who deservedly went away with the trophy for a second time.
