Public speaking continues to thrive - last Monday evening saw Grace Best, Ben Kelly and Jessica Kiss compete in the Lions Youth Leadership Quest. All three spoke remarkably well; Grace gave a speech on the Grenfell Town Band, Ben on professionalism in sport and Jess on the challenges of the future. The impromptu speech asked the competitors to comment on Jessica Watson, the 16 year old who recently sailed solo around the world. The public speaking section was won by Ben and Grace took out overall champion. She will now go on to represent Grenfell Lions at the zone level.
Well, the wait is over - our spelling bee champion for 2010 is Rowan Wilson of Year 7. Congratulations to Rowan and well done also to our other finalists, Emma Taylor and Grace Best. Many in the audience were overheard remarking on the spelling skills of all three! Time to revisit
