Year 5 Public Speaking Competition

This week, twelve students gave 2-3 minute speeches on a topic of choice in a hall filled with peers in the Year 5 public speaking competition.

Big congratulations to all of the competitors - Megan, Layla, Mitchell, Eadie, Rhylan, Ava, Toby, Olivia, Lincoln, Georgia, Chelsea and Hope!

Four finalists were selected to move to the next round, which involved giving an impromptu speech on the topic "summer", with only 5 minutes to prepare.

From the four finalists, two students, Hope Taafe and Chelsea Davies tied in first place with equal scores compiled from both their pre-prepared and impromptu speeches!

Congratulations to all of the students who participated in the competition - speaking in front of a room full of people without a microphone is HARD!
