Y8 Speaking Competition 2026

Our students did an absolutely wonderful job at the Y8 speaking competition on Friday – Miss Kirkland and Mrs Mills as the judges were really struggling to pick a winner – the students were all so thoughtful and passionate about their subject.

The students that took part in this competition were:

• 8-1 Natalia T
• 8-2 Chloe R
• 8-3 Alexis H
• 8-4 Amira M
• 8-5 Francesca W
• 8-6 Evana G
• 8-7 Emmanuel C

The top three winners were:

1st Place – Evana and her speech on the fear of failure and being resilient

2nd Place – Alexis and her speech on the importance of equality in sports for women and girls

3rd Place – Emmanuel and his speech on corruption in Fiji

They all did wonderfully and should be really proud of themselves for their efforts. Well done year 8!
