Attending the Griffith High School Mooting Competition alongside two of my peers, William and Dylan, was an incredibly rewarding and insightful experience. The competition gave us a deeper understanding of the law and helped us build confidence in our public speaking and quick-thinking skills. Mooting in front of the judges allowed us to receive valuable feedback that helped us reflect on how we could improve our performance for future moots.
Most importantly, my peers and I are thankful for our coach Lilliana, who taught us so much about how to structure arguments, speak with confidence, understand the law and respond effectively under pressure. We’re incredibly grateful for the time and effort she put into helping the team improve, and her support gave us the confidence to perform at our best.
Alongside our coach, we were fortunate to practice with two guest judges who gave us thoughtful feedback before the competition to ensure we were prepared. The experience was challenging yet fun, and it’s something that I will carry with me as I continue to explore my interest in law.
