Second year of public speaking

Woy Woy South Public School has conducted a public speaking competition for the second year running.

Students across Years 1 to 6 were invited to speak on a range of topics, in most cases on subjects of their own choosing.

The inter-class competition involved every student and progressed to grade finals with the best speakers from each class performing in front of a school assembly.

Parents, friends and guest adjudicators comprising a local high school principal, teacher and a couple of past students now attending the Brisbane Water Secondary College senior campus were in attendance.

Publicity officer Mr Carl Krucler said that the hardest judging, due to the high standard, was encountered by the secondary students whose task it was to adjudicate the infant grades.

The winners for each grade were Liam Campbell from Year 1, Sara Hatch from Year 2, Alecia Harding and Catherine Hilder from Year 3, Georgia Matterson from Year 4, Justine Chaplin from Year 5 and Chloe Potvin from Year 6.

The students will receive their trophies at presentation days at the end of the year.

All finalists were presented with certificates of achievement.
