Final Graced by a Distinguished Bench of Judges<br />

The Grand Final of the 2014 Annual Schools Youth Speech Competition organised by Renfrew<br />

Speakers Club recently took place in the Normandy Hotel, Renfrew.<br />

The panel of judges was made up of the Chief Judge Graham McLachlan, Immediate ASC Past<br />

President, the current ASC President Margaret Robertson and Jeneffer Zielinski ASC Argyll &<br />

Clyde Area President.<br />

Six teams representing schools from Renfrewshire, East Renfrewshire and Inverclyde Areas<br />

schools took part, they being the winners and runners up from 21 school teams who had taken part<br />

in the earlier ‘knock out’ competitions.<br />

The students were given the choice of speaking on one of the following subjects:<br />

With developments such as GPS, security cameras and mobile devices, it is often said that we live<br />

in a ‘surveillance society’. Is modern technology becoming too invasive in our lives?<br />

In an age of austerity at home, does the £11.5bn the UK is presently spending on overseas aid<br />

represent value for money?<br />

The UK used to pride itself in having an unarmed police force, but nowadays it seems that more<br />

and more police officer are carrying arms. Is routine arming of police an inevitable consequence of<br />

the threats face in modern society?<br />

The winning team was <strong>Gryffe</strong><br />

High School from Renfrewshire<br />

and they are shown in the<br />

photograph proudly holding<br />

the John Richardson Trophy,<br />

accompanied our National<br />

President Margaret Robertson<br />

and by their teacher Jennifer<br />

Higgins.<br />

The runners up were St<br />

Columba’s team No 1 from<br />

Inverclyde and they are shown<br />

in the photograph with their<br />

teachers Anne Friel and Anne<br />

Devlin.<br />

As a permanent memento of<br />

winning the John Richardson<br />

Trophy last year St Stephen’s High School, Port Glasgow, were awarded an engraved glass roundel<br />

trophy to add to their many Speech Competition Awards they have won over the years.<br />

The Chief Judge Graham McLachlan commented on the quality of the speeches, gave constructive<br />

evaluations as well as overall advice to the teams on how to improve their public speaking abilities.<br />

The Chairman for the Final, Hunter Wilson of Renfrew Speakers Club, said that the standard of<br />

public speaking continued to climb and the teams were a credit to their teachers, parents and<br />

schools.<br />

These schools speech competitions whilst contributing to the Scottish Curriculum for Excellence<br />

aims which are to enable a young person to be a successful learner, a confident individual; a<br />

responsible citizen and an effective contributor are completely in line with the Association of<br />

Speakers Clubs motto ‘Achieve Speaking Confidence’.<br />
