Four of our Year 8 and 9 students recently competed in the semi-finals of the Annual Trust Speaking Competition, held at St. Paul’s Catholic School. Each student delivered an impressive speech on a range of topics, showcasing their excellent oracy skills.

During the event, they were questioned by the panel of judges and received high praise for their significant improvement since the quarter-finals, particularly in areas such as intonation, tone, and overall confidence. Their hard work paid off, with two of our talented speakers advancing to the final, which will take place in just a few weeks.

Congratulations to all four students for their dedication and exceptional performance! Best of luck to those heading to the final, and we look forward to seeing more of your incredible progress.
