On Friday 2 March, 12 very articulate and passionate young women shared their wisdom, insights and perspectives with a room full of adults, children and teens in the Catholic Schools Debating Association Metropolitan Public Speaking Competition. Our motto is “Empowering Young Women” and there is no better way than public speaking to do so. Our girls use their voices to promote peace, justice, equality, solidarity and sustainability. All 12 were outstanding. Congratulations to all 12 girls and especially to Kate and Rhiannon who proceeded through to the Zone Final on Friday 9 March.
