The Rotary Club of Taunton has recently launched its intention to run Youth competitions in 2020-21. These include: Young Writer; Young Photographer and Youth Speaks. If you are aged between 13-18 years, or you know of someone in this age group who has an interest in writing, photography or public speaking this is an opportunity for them to develop and express themselves and maybe even win! We realise that circumstances have affected us in strange ways but these competitions can be undertaken individually or in the case of Youth Speaks on-line, thus enabling you and others to stay safe. Schools might like to take this opportunity to use the competition with whole class groups and motivate young people to develop skills beyond the arena of the formal curriculum. Parents and carers could use these activities as part of their family time. Most of all, you, the young people at whom these competitions are aimed, will have the opportunity to express yourselves. To advocate your ideas and opinions and persuade others about the things that interest you. To find out more information about the competitions contact the Rotary contact below to have a discussion and more information.
