Voice It – preliminary stage comes to a close

24 Nov 2020

Voice It is a debating competition organised by the Chokolaate Magazine with the aim of providing a platform for youths to explore an extracurricular activity from the comfort of their homes. The preliminary stage of the online debating competition held on 21 November featured 12 debating teams from Ananda College, Royal College, Nalanda College, Willesden College, Trinity College Kandy, British School in Colombo, Gateway College Colombo, Wesley College, Visakha Vidyalaya, S. Thomas’ Preparatory School, Isipathana College, and St. Peter’s College. All these young participants displayed an epic battle of opinions which impressed the organisers, spectators, and the judges alike.  The judging panel consisted of renowned personalities with exceptional experience and skill in the debating field. Lakshitha Edirisinghe, Thanuki Goonesinghe, Grace Wickramasinghe, Gayan Maldeniya, Himaya Perera, Dineth Hettiarachchi, Lithmal Jayawardana, and Amindhi Pieris graced the panel as judges.  Topics of concern in society such as “the morality of animal testing”, “sustainability vs. brand identity”, “legalisation of marijuana”, “social media has improved human connection”, and “the classification of obesity as a disease” were debated upon vividly. The competition concluded with eight teams qualifying for the quarter finals with an extremely small point margin. The next stage of the competition, which is the quarter finals, will be taking place on 28 November via Zoom. The teams that will be participating in the quarter finals are Ananda College, Royal College, S. Thomas Preparatory School, Gateway College Colombo, British School in Colombo, Nalanda College, Wesley College, and Trinity College Kandy. The competition was live streamed on the Chokolaate Facebook page and was received eagerly by the spectators. Tune in next Saturday (28) to witness a mind-blowing battle of perspectives.  The event’s title sponsor is Monash by UCL, its co-sponsor is CIMA Sri Lanka, and press partner is The Morning.
