This weekend, two Redmaids' High School teams took part in the District Finals of the Rotary Club’s Public Speaking Competition, 'Youth Speaks'.

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.
