This year, Gus Sevil and Katie Martin participated in the Years 3 and 4 division.
At each stage of the competition, contestants present both a prepared speech and an impromptu speech. The prepared speech must have multicultural content and the impromptu speech is chosen by the adjudicator on the day.
Contestants had five minutes to write their impromptu speech.
Katie came second and Gus received a highly commended. Congratulations to you both.
