Round 3 of the Mock Trial Competition was held on Monday 21 May at Gosford Local Court against St Edward's College. Most of the Legal Studies class came to see the workings of a real courtroom.
Our first barrister was Eli Clarkson, second barrister was Katie Lewis, and our solicitor was Alexandra Sidiropoulos. Both barristers spoke extremely well, with Katie Lewis giving a brilliant closing address and Eli being awarded 10/10 by the Magistrate for his presentation!
Both witnesses, Leo Coleman and Luke Mirfield scored high marks for their ability to handle cross-examination from St Edward's barristers. Tom Marsh deserves an honourable mention for his role as Magistrates Clerk.
The excellent team effort displayed resulted in Henry Kendall High School winning the round by almost 30 points.
