We have now reached the end of the preliminary rounds for 2022. We know this has been a challenging year with the prevalence of Covid and other illnesses in our community that made it difficult to organize teams. Despite this, we hope that you have had an enjoyable season and that your students have been able to develop their logical thinking and public speaking skills.
A massive thank you to all of the teachers, coaches, adjudicators, and host school coordinators who make Auckland Schools Debating possible. Without your voluntary time and effort, this competition would not be possible.
Breaking Teams
This year ASD had 300 teams from 60 schools participate in our competitions and we offer our congratulations to all breaking teams on their exceptional achievements.
The break for each division can be found linked below:
