On the 4th of July we hosted the annual Joint School Speaking Activity.  This year only two schools participated, Buddhist Ho Nam Kam College and Buddhist Wong Fung Ling College.

The morning started with two concurrent events, a general practice in the hall and a competition in the classrooms.  The students in the classrooms (four groups) competed for a spot in the demonstration group.

The practice in the hall went very smoothly, the students were very enthusiastic about interacting with students from another school.  They discussed how digital devices deprive the brain of much needed downtime, and then followed with pair work to practice the individual response component.

Meanwhile the students in the classrooms completed the same task and the best speakers from the four groups proceeded to the hall to prepare for the demonstration.

In the hall the second practice paper was distributed and the students discussed how brand-conscious Hongkongers are.  There was no individual response component to the second half and everyone took a much needed break.

Finally we had the opportunity to watch the demonstration discussion on the stage.  The best speakers from the competition had a very interesting discussion about brand-consciousness and the culture of shopping in Hong Kong.

The adjudicators (Miss Florence Chan, BWFLC, and Miss SSF and Ms YKH, BHNKC) deliberated about the discussion and then the prizes were presented to the best speaker, second, third and fourth place:

Best speaker: Zero, Tsui Man Ho, BHNKC

Second place: Leo, Koo Wai Hang, BHNKC

Third Place: Tina, Kwan Wing Sam, BWFLC

Fourth place: Nicolas, Sum Pak Ying, BWFLC
