Rostrum public speaking

Rostrum public speaking

By Mrs Jo O'Brien, Assistant Head of Junior School Learning and Teaching

On Tuesday, ten Rostrum Public Speaking finalists were recognised as outstanding speakers in the Junior School.

Congratulations to the winner Jacob Koznkak (right), and reserve, Yongmin Yin.

These students in Years 4, 5 and 6 were chosen after completing a class speech, a year level final or selected after presenting at the Junior School Oratory Co-Curricular. Our finalists spoke eloquently on some of the following topics pre-selected by the ACT Primary School’s Public Speaking Competition Committee:

  • Imagine That
  • Making Music
  • Shortcuts
  • Through the Telescope
  • On the Move

Congratulations to our winner, Jacob Koznjak, who will present his speech on the topic, Imagine That, at the quarter finals in June.

An honourable mention goes to Yongmin Yin, our reserve, who will compete in the quarter finals if Jacob is unable to do so.
