Celebrating the Dedication, Team Work and Skills of Our Students in the Debating Matters Competition

We take great pride in acknowledging the exceptional dedication and outstanding skills exhibited by our students in the Debating Matters competition at the University of Applied Sciences! Their hard work, critical thinking, and fearless participation as speakers in the debates and from the audience have been truly remarkable. Nearly all the students from our four English advanced classes came out in full force to cheer on and bolster our team. They actively engaged in the event by posing thought-provoking questions and participating wholeheartedly. The team support was truly phenomenal. We are so proud of all of you!!

This prestigious event, organized by the Ideas Matter/Debating Matters team and Freiblick Institute now at its 20th anniversary, provided a valuable platform for growth and engaging debates. We express our sincere appreciation to our teachers and mentors, esp. Mr. Mücke and Mrs. Garthwaite for their guidance and support throughout the competition. While the journey may have had its challenges, and we dropped out earlier than expected after winning the first debate, we celebrate the growth and accomplishments of our students, confident in their continued success in future endeavors.

Thank you to our wonderful students for participating and representing Humboldtschool with grace and professionalism!!
