United Nations Evatt Trophy Australia - Success again!

Two of our Year 12 Mount Lawley students, Rachael and Max, took part this year in the UN Evatt Trophy run by UN Youth Australia.

This competition challenges students from Years 9 to 12 to step into a simulated role of the United Nations Security Council to tackle some of the world's biggest issues.

More than 2,000 students from across Australia and New Zealand compete in the contest every year. 

In May this year, Max and Rachael (former 2016 State representatives) competed in the opening heats of the regional round.

Once again, they have succeeded in proceeding to the state final at Parliament House.

15 duos from across WA  will engaged in one planned debate and two impromptu debates, in which teams negotiate to amend, reject and pass resolutions. 

We would like to wish Rachael & Max the best of luck in competing in the State final and look forward to "twin success" in 2016 & 2017!
