Western Chances and Free Debate
Roland Dillon
We have received a huge response to our offer to provide training
through Western Chances. At present there are four schools that are
interested in receiving training along the lines of the Bayside
program of last year, and one school interested in a public speaking/
leadership course (potentially along the lines of the VASS program).
Tim, Liz and I will be meeting with Helen of Western Chances on
Monday
14 May to discuss the projects. Helen has been a very enthusiastic
supporter of Free Debate and has publicised us extensively to target
schools. What I need to know is how much time people have available
(probably during school hours) to provide this training. This is an
excellent opportunity for some of our new members to get some
experience training with a tested program with supervision from
senior
trainers.
Please let me know if you would like to be involved, and how much
time
you have available.
I certainly found the Bayside program extremely rewarding last year.
