14 March 2016 Dear Parents/Guardians Please find below a summary of the Dominic College debating roster. It is unlikely that any of the times and venues will change during the competition, however there is a live version of the roster at the TDU website: https://tdu.org.au/seasons . I will let the students know of any changes well in advance. Please note there are two Year 8 teams, with different rosters. Students are aware of which team they are in. Also, my apologies for an error on the permission slip contained in my previous email. This form advised that after school sessions would be held on a Friday. This is not the case; all after school sessions will take place on Wednesday afternoons, on the evening of each debate. Dominic College Novice (Year 7) Team Roster Date 09 March
