Best Speaker award
Jacobi Kohu-Morris, Year 9, won the title of Best Speaker in the recent Otago regional competition. An impressive feat considering most of the other participants were Year 10 students. Jacobi spoke on "Cleaner energies and sustainable practices." The judges were impressed with his confident, warm and persuasive delivery. Many in the audience said if he was a politician, they would vote for him!
