ESU Public Speaking is an annual competition run by the ESU, hosting the heats online and all other rounds in person and myself, Dunni & Hamish are the team for this year!

Historically, the school has participated yearly in the ESU competitions including debating, Shakespearean drama as well as public speaking. The oldest year group for the public speaking competition is year eleven, so this is our last chance as a group!

Speech topic for Gordon’s – ‘Privacy is a myth in the digital age’

Key Moments:

• Winning one of the strongest contestant.

• Positive feedback on the speech and people enjoyed Nathanial’s speech.

• Despite a tense atmosphere the warm host helped us to relax. There was tough competition from some very talented competitors.

“I’m really proud of them and I can see the hard work they put in.”

Ms Moore(Director of Creative Arts)

“We felt proud and an immense sense of success and are proud to have represented Gordon’s victorious legacy in another aspect of school life”
