The 2021 French Speech Competition

563 candidates, 20 schools and 33 categories.

This was the fierce competition that our students faced for this year’s French Speech Competition which took place in November 2021. Whether you recited a poem by Jacques Prévert or chose your own piece of prose, the challenge was to demonstrate your eloquent oratory skills in French, against students from across Hong Kong. 

South Island School can proudly count amongst its students several certificates for merit and indeed a 1st Runner-up.

• The 1st Runner-up for Solo Prose Reading is Amaanat Rekhi (10N2). She also received a Certificate of Merit for Solo Poetry Speaking.
• Swati Sharma, (10M2), received a Certificate of Participation for her Solo Poetry Speaking.
• Agastya Rekhi, (08N1), received a Certificate of Honour for his Solo Poetry Speaking and a Certificate of Participation for his Solo Prose Reading. 
• Joshua Moore, (07M1) and Felix Moore, (07N2), both received Certificates of Merit for their Solo Poetry Speaking. 

The French Department is very proud of their results and congratulates them on their dedication and motivation to learning French. You are true life-long learners!

Félicitations!
