Poetry and Speech Finals

LI: to learn persuasive speeches.
For the first time in 2019 for Panmure Bridge School we had a speech and poetry competition/finals. Near the start of the term we worked on making speeches or reciting poems, some people were picked to present their speech or poem to the whole school in the hall. We were lucky to get a special visit from a person named Stevenson, he is a teacher from Tamaki college. He was going to be the judge for our competition to see who came first, second or third. After all of speeches and poems were presented we were told the first second and third. My favorite speech was about how we can stand up fetchers and save the land that belongs to people at Ihumatao, this speech was writen by a person named Mele. I liked this speech because it stands up for people and it had a lot of enthusiasm. My favorite poem was about a person talking about himself, this poem was recited by Malassi.
