Winner!!!

A huge congratulations to Milly who won the AB Paterson Speech Competition last night!

Milly was in the preliminary finals yesterday afternoon and then was chosen from this to go in the Grand Final. She then performed her speech again last night and was awarded the overall winner!

Such a fantastic result! First place out of 189 Year 5 students from 33 schools on the Gold Coast.

We are very proud of Milly indeed!

Congratulations to all those involved in the AB Paterson Speech Competition

Last Tuesday, 6 students from our class participated in the annual AB Paterson Speech Competition - Milly, Laura, Sienna, Grace, Tiana and Mikaela. All children did a wonderful job! It takes a lot of hard work and courage to get up in front of an audience to deliver a speech. Congratulations to all the children.

An extra special congratulations to Milly who made the Preliminary Finals which will be held this afternoon (Tuesday 25th October) at AB Paterson. Stage tuned for an update on how she goes! Good luck Milly! We are very proud of you as we are of all the children.

The rest of the class have now performed their speeches for our class. Well done to all the children!
