Thanks to this powerful statement made by Ralph Waldo Emerson, we chose our speech topics for 2016.
Students presented speeches that were persuading, converting, humorous, sad, and finally that were compelling.
What an entourage of topics and a confidence seemed to ooze from our speakers as they spoke.
Seven speakers were chosen from R9 to represent the Year 4 and 5's at the whole school finals held on Friday 12th August.
What a huge step up it was and I wish to thank all participants for their inspirational talks, to the parents who know doubt endured hours and hours of listening and critiquing.
Finally I wish to thank the judges who saw through the students nerves to select overall winners for our school.
Our 1st place-getters will go forward to our areas finals.
Good luck to the two from our class.
Mrs M will be there supporting you both on the 1st September.
Here are our speakers who went through to the finals.
Congratulations from us all in Room 9!
