Year 7 Public Speaking Competition

Our annual Year 7 Public Speaking Competition was a great success this month; each pupil had just two minutes to talk about the best human invention, using their powers of persuasion to convince our guest judge, Mr Giles Robinson from Sherborne School, that theirs should be chosen. Very well done to Jemima, who came 1st for clarity of voice and use of humour when talking about her chosen invention, the oven; to Sebastian, who was highly commended for good eye contact and a well-reasoned argument about books; and to Octavia, who was speaking about the iPhone and was commended for great delivery and a good use of counter argument. We were so impressed by all of you!
