On Tuesday, 23 July, six Howick High learners attended the Inter-School Assembly of Speakers Competition at Maritzburg College.
Three of the learners competed for the Gold Certificate which is awarded to the 'Speaker of the Night'.
Elisha Subramanien spoke on the topic "Social media and strategies to use it effectively" whilst Abigail Weber and Sanele Nkuna spoke on the topic "The paradox of technology: connecting or disconnecting?". Each speaker was given 10 minutes to prepare a speech of between three to five minutes.
We congratulate our Head Boy, Sanele Nkuna, who was awarded the accolade of 'Speaker and Speech of the Night' by the adjudicators. Sanele spoke on the complexities of technology, touching on different ways in which technology connects us and disconnects us and illustrated that the balance is found in one's level of self-discipline.
Age Quod Agis to all our Speakers!
