Speech Competition 2024!

Hannah Sadler —

We are excited to hold the Amesbury School Speech Competition for 2024!

This is a wonderful opportunity for students of all ages to try something new and create and present a speech on a topic they are interested in. 

It is open to students of all ages. The speech time limits are:

  • Year 0 - between 30 seconds and 1 minute

  • Year 1-2 - between 1 minute and 2 minutes

  • Year 3-4 - between 1min 30sec and 2min 30sec

  • Year 5-6 - between 2min 30sec and 3min 30sec

Students must sign up for the competition by Sunday 18th of August 2024.

  • Click here for the Registration form. 

  • Heats will take place in Week 7 (2nd - 6th of September 2024) during lunch time. These will be judged by hub teachers, and each age group (Y0, Y1-2, Y3-4, and Y5-6) will send their three top students to the finals. 

  • The finals will take place in our school hall at 2pm on Friday 13th of September 2024. At the final, judges will be looking for speeches with good structure, strong voices, and audience interaction.

For any questions, please email Hannah at hannah@amesbury.school.nz. We are excited to hear all the amazing speeches our students will deliver!

Best of luck to all participants!
