The annual Lecturette competition for Year 6 students has come around again, with six St Joseph’s School students standing tall to present their speeches with eight students from other local schools at the Lecturette District Final held on Monday 2nd December.

Angus Crome, Liam Telfer, Sonny Fraguas, Imogen Rossow, Jacob Hennoste and Noah Taylor were selected to represent St Joseph’s School in the finals, after reciting their lectures to students, staff and families in the Town Final competition held on Monday 25th November. 

While public speaking can be very daunting, all students were confident and assertive in the delivery of their speeches which were the result of weeks of planning, drafting, editing and polishing.

Although St Joseph's School did not take home the trophy this year, the students enjoyed the opportunity to develop their research skills and present a point of view. Well done to all the students who competed and to Grace Roberts from Severnlea State School who won the competition.
