Student Excellence

Lions Club Youth of the Year Competition

On February 18th,  Kayra Meric 12S and Lucy Tomov 11F represented the College at the Lions Youth of the Year competition. This competition is designed to encourage, foster and develop leadership in young people. The students were interviewed by a panel of three judges and then took part in a public speaking competition, which required them to answer  two impromptu questions and deliver a five minute planned speech on a topic of their choice. Lucy promoted the importance of teen mental health awareness and Kayra's spoke of the need to address homelessness in Australia. Both students produced excellent speeches and spent many hours preparing for the competition. Congratulations to Kayra, who was awarded the winner of the Public Speaking section of the night!
