Public Speaking Successes

By Kristan Mouat Monday March 31, 2014

Our Public Speakers have been busy competing in a number of competitions recently.

Connor Seddon and Josephine Devereux were placed first and second respectively in the Dunedin Rotary Four-Way Speech competition.  Connor went on to win the Otago final, and then the Otago-Southland final beating the best speakers from Timaru, Central Otago and Invercargill.  

Jacobi Kohu-Morris was placed second in the Otago final of the RSA Cyril Bassett VC Speech competition. Jake also spoke persuasively in the Otago final of the Race Unity speech competition.  

And Connor, Oscar McNoe and Jacobi were named Best Speakers in the Otago Model United Nations Assembly (MUNA) event.  All three will go to Wellington to compete in the national event.
