Public Speaking 2010During Term Three, students from Years 3 to7 participated in the Prep Public SpeakingCompetition. Public Speaking is considered tobe the most common social fear, so the initialaim of this program was to provide all studentswith the opportunity to participate in a speakingcompetition in the safe and supportive environmentof their classroom.Following class-based competitions, finalists fromeach class were chosen to progress to the YearLevel finals. These finals took place from Weeks 8to 10 and the depth and talent of the participantswas astounding. Topics ranged from RecyclingWill Help the Planet to Australia’s GreatestWoman. It was no easy task for the adjudicatorsto make their decisions on final placings. Someplacings were only separated by half a point!Medals and certificates will be awarded in TermFour.At the end of the day, the real success of the PublicSpeaking program is not in the medals won, butin the enormous benefit this opportunity providesto develop and enhance students’ communicationskills and self-confidence.15
