Annual Competition
Young People Speak Out

 |
On Thursday 2 December) the Combined Rotary clubs of Hillingdon (Elthorne-Hillingdon, Pinner, Ruislip-Northwood & Uxbridge) hosted the local rounds of the Intermediate and Senior Sections of Rotary's Youth Speaks at Swakeleys School, competing for a place in a further round in the New Year. Teams from Douay Martyrs, St Helens, & Vyners schools contested the Intermediate section and from Douay Martyrs, Swakeleys and Uxbridge College the Seniors.
Presenting the prizes, Deputy Mayor Cllr Mary O'Connor (MBE), warmly congratulated all the students participating and stressed the importance of confidence in public speaking for their futures. Both sections were tightly contested, with the winners emerging as St. Helens "A" in the Intermediate section for their views on "Happiness" and Uxbridge College again triumphed in the Senior section with their provoking "Guns don't kill people, Rappers Do". We wish them well as they move on to wider opposition.
In the UK, "Youth Speaks" is Rotary's jewel in the crown for young people to gain confidence & progress in their abilities to deliver arguments persuasively and with assurance. For information go to www.hillingdonrotary.org.uk.
