The Youth Speaks competition is now open for teams to register! Our Club engages with local schools and help run the Youth Speaks Competition. It is an excellent forum and opportunity for children to develop their public speaking abilities and perform, persuade, and entertain their audience. The children present their arguments and then at the end take a question from the audience. The competition has three tiers, District Heats, District Finals and Grand Final! Last year, a team from a local school in Andover reached the semi finals of the national competition.A fantastic achievement.
