Plain English Speaking
This annual public speaking competition gives students over 15 and under 18 years of age the opportunity to give an 8 minute speech on any topic they like for the chance to win a prize and a trip to Nationals. (Note: given the circumstances surrounding covid19, there may be no national competition in 2021. More information to follow closer to the date.) The national winner wins a trip to compete in London.
Students will also be expected to perform an impromptu speech of 3 minutes and, should they reach the finals, a 3 minute interview.
The ACT Competition for 2021 will be held online. Please submit speeches via email to pesa.canberra@gmail.com by June 30th. Include your full name and the name of your school in the email subject.
Registrations are open. Email Kate Johnston at pesa.canberra@gmail.com with any questions.
