Congratulations to all our students who represented St Bede’s last week online at the Northern Region Public Speaking Competition. The level of presentations was truly amazing with adjudicators all expressing the difficulty in selecting place getters, especially a winner.

Thankyou to Mrs. Germaine Hannaford, Mrs. Jackie French and Mr. Michael Crosby who gave up a great deal of time to adjudicate Years 3-6 speeches. Topics were quite open ended and allowed the speakers opportunity to be creative and distinguish themselves from the other speakers.

Year 3 - 2 minute speech - Goals are good for you - Jolyn & Edie
Year 4 - 2 minute speech - What makes the world go ‘round - Stella and Daisy=3rd
Year 5 - 3 minute speech - If only  - Ivy 3rd & Isla
Year 6 - 3 minute speech - Being young is overrated - Frankie & Rosalie 1st

The top two speakers from each year level will represent the region at the Archdiocesan Competition in November. Mr. Galvin will communicate the details when they become available.
