English Speaking Union Competition, Heat Success

The Abbey team won their heat in the English Speaking Union Competition. It was a unanimous decision by the three judges.

The team will be going through to the Regional Final which will be in March with Bedford School and St John Lawes School going through as well. As other schools in the  Berkshire heat dropped out due to lockdown, The Abbey ended up in the Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire round via Zoom.

 

Congratulations should go to Harriet (Chair), Jigya (Speaker) and Alia (Questioner). However, all members of the Lower V Public Speaking Club contributed to their success. Jigya spoke on the subject: ‘Life is really simple. but we insist on making it complicated’ (Confucious).
