Both teams performed extremely well, speaking fluently and intelligently on the topics of society’s *Views on Autism* and *Time is of the Essence*. The intermediate team of Gwennie, Cecilia and Bella (pictured) won their age category, and will now go forward to the next stage of the competition. The senior team of Rosie, Megan and Freya were narrowly defeated into second place. Well done to everyone involved and good luck to the intermediate team in the Regional Finals.    Date Posted: 12 February, 2019 [Share](http://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https://news.redmaidshigh.co.uk/news-article/our-students-make-their-voices-heard) ## Articles for: ![National finals here we come! | Redmaids' High School](https://news.redmaidshigh.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Public%20speaking%201-450_th.jpg?width=770&name=Public%20speaking%201-450_th.jpg) **National finals here we come! | Redmaids' High School** Date Posted: 9 March, 2020 READ MORE ![Success for our Junior and Senior judo teams | Redmaids' High School](https://news.redmaidshigh.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/20200209_132755%20JUDO%20edited%20-450_th.jpg?width=770&name=20200209_132755%20JUDO%20edited%20-450_th.jpg) **Success for our Junior and Senior judo teams | Redmaids' High School** Date Posted: 14 February, 2020 READ MORE ![Regional hockey champions | Redmaids' High School](https://news.redmaidshigh.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/U13%20hockey%20squad%20-450_th.png?width=770&name=U13%20hockey%20squad%20-450_th.png) **Regional hockey champions | Redmaids' High School** Date Posted: 9 December, 2019 READ MORE ![A winning netball season | Redmaids' High School](https://news.redmaidshigh.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Netball%20jumping%20edited%20-450_th.jpg?width=770&name=Netball%20jumping%20edited%20-450_th.jpg) **A winning netball season | Redmaids' High School** Date Posted: 12 March, 2020 READ MORE ![England Netball National Schools Finals Winners](https://news.redmaidshigh.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/U16%20Redmaids%20High%20England%20National%20Netball%20-%20Social.jpg?width=770&name=U16%20Redmaids%20High%20England%20National%20Netball%20-%20Social.jpg) **England Netball National Schools Finals Winners** Date Posted: 21 March, 2023 On 11 March 2023 our U16 netball team travelled to Peterborough to compete in the England Netball National Schools...
