Speech Competition Winners and Participants

On Thursday 24th September we held the senior school speech competion. Each class in the senior school had 3 participants to present their speech in the finals. 

Our topis for the speech competition was "Heroes are ordinary people". All students wrote persuasively to present their ideas, opinions and statements in their speech. All 3 classes in the senior school had their own speech competition in their individual classes first and the teachers selected 3 students from each class to present their speech in the finals. 

Here are our participants and winners. We are so proud of these students and all the students in the senior school for having the courage to present their speeches with enthusiasm. All students did an amazing job. 

Our School Values

We have been creating DLO's (Digital learning objects) to share what our school values mean to us with a wider audience (As many people as we can share it with). We have created our videos using Powtoon.

These peojects are not complete yet as we only started these today. Please visit our individual blogs by the end of this week to check out some DLO's (Digital learning objects) we create to share our passion project.
