Reaching further than any other teams previously sponsored by the Rotary Club of Oswestry, three Year 11 students, Kitty Davenport, Martha Stewart and Morgan Darcy Rees-Deacon, represented Moreton Hall, School, Shropshire in the National Final of the prestigious Rotary GB&I National Youth Speaks competition at Kirkham Grammar School, Preston on Saturday 7th May 2016.
In a contest of very high standards, against teams from all around the UK, they are to be congratulated on their ability to speak so passionately on their subject of Feminism; Kitty in her role as Chairperson, Martha as the Speaker who spoke with clarity and confidence and Morgan who gave the Vote of Thanks and summed up the speech highlighting the key points. As a team they worked well together and were attentive to each other’s delivery. It was also thought provoking and had been extremely well researched.
The Rotary Club of Oswestry is very proud that the team achieved a place in the final and, with GCSE Exam Revision looming, participated so well in an event that was performed at such a high level. This can only allow each of them to grow in confidence in presenting in the future.
The Club congratulates all three and wishes them good luck in their exams.
