Some photos from the IrFWU Public Speaking Competition in UCD on Saturday. Ance, Clare, Nicole and Abigail represented Presentation College and while they didn't place this time they have gained valuable experience and knowledge for future events. It was their first time participating in such an event ! Hats off to these girls for putting themselves out there and working so hard on this for the last number of weeks. After getting some good constructive feedback from the adjudicators, the girls are a step ahead for their next competition. Thanks to Ms Kirwan for her support and encouragement.
