Youth Speaks
Youth Speaks is an annual tournament promoted by Rotary Clubs around the world. In 20119 the event, in Ryedale and area was sponsored by Pickering Rotary Club at Lady Lumley's School.
An Evening of Talent
The Rotary Club of Pickering annually organises a Ryedale District ‘Youth Speaks’ Competition. Secondary School teams of three pupils, from Scarborough, Pickering and Malton, meet at Lady Lumley School, to compete before a large audience in a public speaking competition.
Public speaking is an important life skill and is one that Rotarians value. Rotarians are always delighted to support and celebrate the expertise of young people. Each year, thousands of young people take part in such events that culminate in the regional and Rotary GB&I finals to which participants travel from throughout the British Isles to take part. It is a wonderful demonstration the achievement of those taking part and a great experience of their speaking talent.
Senior, Intermediate and Junior teams from St Augustine's and Scarborough College, Malton, Ryedale and Lady Lumley's Schools. Scarborough Junior Section came first. In the intermediate section, St Augustine's were the winning team and the Senior Section (16-17)competition was awarded to Malton School.
All participants were awarded book tokens and certificate. The winning teams were presented with a trophy by Sue Harris, President of Pickering Rotary.
