THREE East Loddon P12 College junior students have progressed to the Year 5-6 final of the Lions junior public speaking award after giving speeches on the most influential person in their life.
Emily Lister, Baxter Long and Talia Smith will represent the college at the East Loddon club’s final. Runner-up was Neko Straub.
They were among eight students who spoke before other students and judges John Davidson, Felicity Davidson and Loddon Herald editor Chris Earl last Thursday.
Fathers were a key topic for many of the young speakers.
Earlier, students from Years 3 and 4 had given talks on their favourite fairytale or book character.
Ruby Hocking, Jonty Hooke and Emily Hughes were selected as East Loddon’s representatives for the club final. Runner-up was Sophia Turra.
