At Ravenswood School for Girls, leadership and debating go hand-in-hand. With a strong tradition in competitive debating, students take part in prestigious tournaments like the Independent Schools Debating Association and Archdale Debating Competitions.
Through debating, Ravenswood students develop critical skills such as personal expression, communication, creativity, and engagement. In the article ‘How school prepares the leaders of tomorrow’ featured in the Good Weekend, The Sydney Morning Herald – Principal Mrs Anne Johnstone emphasises how this co-curricular activity nurtures critical thinking and character, shaping well-rounded future leaders. Debating at Ravenswood isn’t just about winning debates—it’s about preparing students to lead with understanding, empathy, and balance.
