Congratulations Ciara, Year 6, for qualifying for the final of the ISA Public Speaking competition 2024, taking place in Cambridge today.
We love her expressive recital of her chosen piece ‘I raise my hand in class’ by American poet Kenn Nesbitt – take a look at her performance here:
Thorpe Hall School’s unique provision in Years 5 & 6 equips children with the skills and confidence they need for a life of success, and this includes a string focus on cornerstone skills such as public speaking. We’re so proud of Ciara for coming so far in this highly contested national competition.
