In week 8, we had the privilege of hosting our much-anticipated annual speech competition heats, and what an incredible journey it has been! We want to extend our gratitude to all the remarkable children who took the stage with unwavering courage and to their dedicated whānau who stood by their side, offering support throughout this endeavor.
We would also like to take a moment to express our deep appreciation for our exceptional judges. These teachers (judges) have worked very hard to carefully judge each speech, making sure that every participant gets a fair and considerate evaluation. Their tireless efforts and dedication to the competition have truly enriched the experience for everyone involved.
Today marked the end of weeks of preparation and hard work as we gathered to witness the speech finals. The level of talent and dedication displayed by our participants has been nothing short of awe-inspiring.
