Two ladies, one institution, two far-sighted and futuristic visions, one goal: Miss Grace Mary Linnell, the legendary Founder Principal of Welham Girls’ School, and her successor Miss Saroj Srivastava, under whose stewardship of eighteen years the school moved to greater heights. It is to remember and honour these stalwarts of education that every year the school hosts two of our most prestigious inter-school events dedicated to them- the Miss Saroj Srivastava Inter School English Debate and the Miss Linnell Memorial Inter School Hindi Debate. This year, the debates were held online on the 14th of October, 2020. Eleven top schools of the country participated in the debates. The Miss Saroj Srivastava Inter School English Debate was held in two rounds. The First round was in the extempore format with two speakers of each team speaking for and against the motion, and the third member of the team or the interlocutor asking questions to the speakers from other schools.
