THREE local primary schools have been invited to the Southern African Development Community (SADC) debate competitions in Mozambique.
The competitions will be hosted by Beira International School next month.
The chosen schools will be travelling courtesy of the Primary Schools Debate Challenge (PriDC).
National Marwa, the PriDC convener, said the pupils will benefit from cultural exchange.
“We have the primary schools that will be traveling to Mozambique for the SADC Debate competitions.
“The competitions will run from August 2 to 4.
“Zimbabwean schools will be competing against schools from Mozambique, Botswana, Zambia, Namibia, and SA,” he said.
The schools are Old Windsor, Sir John Kennedy and Munro Primary Schools.
“Learners will benefit from cultural exchange as they will get to interact with students from various African countries.
“They will also get a platform to voice their opinions on topical issues at an international stage.”
National also said they organise debate and public speaking competitions to enable students to learn to analyse and evaluate arguments to form well-informed opinions.
