Youth Speaks 2010

Rotary

Congratulations to our two teams who made it to the regional finals of the Rotary Youth Speaks Competiton. 

Our Senior team of Aarthi Suresh, Alex Craig and Sree Krishnamoorthy won their heat of the competition in Paisley on 10th March. They now go on to the national final. 

The junior team of Harrison Smith, Broccan Carlin and Lily Smith were second in their category.  This is an immense achievement for both teams.

Each year hundreds of young people take part in local and regional events that culminate in this RIBI final, which sees participants travelling from throughout the British Isles to take part.
Teams come from schools, colleges, youth training schemes or youth groups and comprise three members: the chairman, the speaker and the proposer of the vote of thanks. No entrant may be a member of more than one team. No team may participate more than once in a qualifying round.

There are two categories:

  • Intermediate competition - 11 to 13 years old on August 31st 2009
  • Senior competition - 14 to 17 years old on August 31st 2009.

The competition aims to offer young people:

  • An experience of speaking on a public platform as members of a team.
  • An incentive to formulate ideas on significant subjects.
  • The discipline in dealing with a topic in a limited time.
  • The opportunity of learning and practising high standards of expression, presentation and appearance.
  • The impartial criticism and assessment of performance by experienced adjudicators.

Students from across Great Britain and Ireland will be battling it out for the title of RIBI Youth Speaks champions at this prestigious event.
