PTA Public Speaking Competition
Every year, the PTA holds a public speaking competition with the help and encouragement of the English department. Entrants had a range of topics to speak upon which included 'The World Wide Web - Good or Evil', 'Why Should we Reduce, Re-use and Recycle?', 'School Uniform - is it Necessary?', 'If I Ruled the World' and 'My Favourite Place'.

As in most years, the standard of entry was exceptionally high and this year the trophy was won by Diana Silby of S2. Second Place went to Eilidh MacLennan of S2 and in third place was Rebecca Munro of S1.
Well done to all the competitors who kept the judges entertained with their magnificent talks!  Our thanks go to Mrs Miller of the English department who organised the competition and the library for hosting it. Special thanks to the judging panel of Mr Duncan MacArthur, Aberdeen City Council Learning Strategist and Mrs Margaret Hill of the Hazlehead Learning Resource Centre.
