Public Speaking Grand Final results

On Friday 17 March, Dr Ireland,  Gabriella Michalopoulos, Natalie Broom and Mr Bray accompanied Sophie Murphy, Year 8 and Leia Gonzales, Year 9 to the Grand final for the CSDA Public Speaking competition. Sophie and Leia were part of the twelve representatives MSCW entered for Public Speaking. In each respective age group, each student was competing against 164 other students from around Sydney. Both Sophie and Leia made it into the top 12. An incredible result. Although neither made it to the top 4, their achievement is astronomical. Sophie who entered for the first time and Leia who was speaking in the Year 10 competition despite being younger than her competition have achieved an incredible feat. As a college, we are so incredibly proud of their achievement. Congratulations to Sophie, Leia, and all students who participated in this year’s competition. Given the caliber of speakers, we are looking forward to the debating season, which starts in Week 1 of Term 2.
