Speech Competition Success

This week Ripeka and Arohaina represented Tauriko School at the Tall Poppies Speech competition at Omokoroa No1 School. The girls were up against the top students from schools around the district. We are thrilled to announce that Ripeka won the Year 7 competition with her speech on 'Attitudes'. Arohaina also has a successful experience, taking out second place in the year 8 competition with her speech on 'Rheumatic Fever'. We are so proud of the girls and the time and effort that went into writing and refining their work, as well as the honing of their speech presentation skills. Ripeka now goes on to the next stage of the inter-school speech competitions. Good luck, Ripeka!
