Francis Burt Chambers acknowledges the involvement of Bill Keane SC, Venetia Bennett, Carolyn Moss, James Scovell, Simon Majteles, Chris Mofflin and Rein Squires in the Law Society’s Mock Trial Competition this year, who each volunteered as either Mock Trial Judges or Advocacy Coaches.
We note that Simon Majteles’ team of Bob Hawke College students came runners up to Ilona Presentation College in the 2025 Grand Final at the Supreme Court.
The Mock Trial Competition is a community legal education initiative in which student teams present both sides of a fictitious criminal or civil case before a mock trial judge in a real court room. We hope to continue Francis Burt Chambers’ involvement in this important educational tool that sparks an interest in the law at a high school level.
