Speech Contest 2010

* This is a private page not linked publicly from elsewhere in The Riviera Woman *

The 2010 International Schools Speech Contest was hosted by the Centre International de Valbonne and held in their theatre. Organised by The International Club of the Riviera and sponsored by Events By George, the event called upon ten speakers, each a pupil at one of the participating schools, to deliver a four-minute speech on a designated subject. The best five, as determined by a panel of three judges, went forward to a second round to deliver a speech of their own choosing. The winner was then announced.
