Junior Speech Finals 2016 - Year Nine and Ten

Posted on May 26, 2016

The Junior Speech finals took place recently.

All Year Nine and Ten students delivered speeches in their English classes as part of the curriculum, then the highest achieving speaker from each class went forward to the semi-finals, with the top six speakers in each year group being selected for the finals.

The quality of the speeches in the finals was extremely high, and the judges had a very difficult decision to make. Ms Robinson and Mr Gough judged the Year Nine final. The Year Ten final was judged by Mrs Irving and Mr Green.

The results were:

Year 9
