KGV Model United Nations 2019

On Monday 60 KGV students participated in their first Model United Nations event of the year. In this preliminary event, new and experienced students assumed the role of a United Nations member state to debate the Arab Israeli conflict. This emotive issue was skillfully chaired by Joaquin Magno and Irisa Kwok with awards for Best Position Paper going to the delegates from Greece (Katherine Yan and Mudita Jain) and the Best Delegates being awarded to Japan (Carlo Cico and Kayley Wong). Special mention must also be given to the three Year 7 students (Sahaana Gulrajani, Isabella Caglirini and Maggie Pratt) who in their first event held their own surrounded by students much older than they are.

We look forward to seeing how this team continue to develop their understanding of international events as they go on to participate in more conferences across Hong Kong and beyond.
