Going Strong in Mock Trials 2016

This year Mount Lawley SHS has had three teams competing in the Law Society of Western Australia’s Mock Trial Competition. 

With 120 teams from over 40 schools the standards are as high as ever. 

All of our teams have now finished the non-elimination rounds.

With two teams now in the finals (the last 16 teams of the 120 teams in the competition), we hope that they can emulate the success of previous years Mount Lawley teams - Grand Finalist runners up 2015 and winners of 2014 and 2013.

This year, Chaz, from the Class of 2015, has been coaching the teams. 

Thompson Downey Cooper's lawyer, Rhiarne Bruce, returned for a fourth year to give generously of her time to lead the coaching effort and Ms Galavan has been the teacher coordinator.

Team 1, the Year 11's and 12s - Shaun, Sophia, Lulu, Johnny, Penny, Jack, Olivia T and Olivia W - have had a fantastic run and won all three trials against Perth College, St Hilda’s and Willetton SHS. 

The team has made it through to the finals.

All members have shown huge development in their skills and understanding and have received praise from the judges for their wonderful etiquette.

Team 2, comprising Lauren, Davis, Kimberly, Oscar, Jean, Anja, Alyssa and Isabel have also had an outstanding series of trials, especially as this is their first year in the competition. 

They have had big margin wins in all three of their trials against Perth College, St Hilda’s and Mandurah Baptist College. 

They have made it through to the final 16 teams and they have the skills and teamwork to go far!

Team 3’s members, Thomas, Jason, Andy, Jasnoor, Yasmin, Liam and Teri (TJ) have also experienced success, winning two of their three trials against Tranby College and St Hilda’s (twice).  

This group put in long hours of preparation and deserve to feel very proud of the way they represented the school. 

"Mock trials has been a wonderful experience to hone our analytical, confidence and public speaking skills. It has especially been exhilarating to apply those skills in actual court case proceedings and to see our hard work pay off." - Jason (Year 10)

We congratulate all of our Mock Trial students on their efforts so far and wish them every success!
