Last weekend, a group of Royal Russell students attended the 28th Haileybury MUN Conference. They represented the Republic of Korea and Jordan in the Disarmament and Security, Ecology and Environment, and Conference Special Committees and the Human Rights Council. This was a great opportunity for our students to develop their public speaking skills and debate topics such as the Establishment of the use of biological weapons in warfare, Improving the monitoring and management of natural disasters, Combating intolerance and discrimination against persons based on religion or beliefs and The rights of protestors, amongst many other current issues. Congratulations to Winnie Wang, Caprice Walsh, Nana Otchere-Darko, Alexander Chesters and Mark Ben Mikhelson for taking part. A special mention to Rohan Phillpot who was taking part in his first MUN Conference and received the Distinguished Delegate Award.
