21 March 2017 • Concern Debating & Public Speaking
Congratulations to Davitt College Transition Year students Emma Barrett, Chloe Bright, John Feeney, and Claire McHale, who have successfully reached the All-Ireland Quarter Finals of the prestigious Concern Public Speaking and Debating Competition 2017!
🎙️ A Tradition of Excellence
These talented and dedicated students are expertly tutored by Mr. Liam Egan, who has guided Transition Year, Fifth Year, and Leaving Certificate students for over 25 years in the fine art of public speaking and debating. The participating Transition Year students highlighted the incredible confidence and character-building value of the pursuit, urging younger pupils to get involved and become part of the vibrant debating fraternity here at Davitt College.
🌟 Skills for Life
Principal Ms. Bernie Rowland warmly congratulated both the students and Mr. Egan, wishing them the very best of luck in the next round of the competition. Emphasising the lifelong value of the initiative, she noted:
“Public Speaking provides our students with not just debating skills but also a capacity to cope under pressure and present themselves in a confident manner while under public scrutiny.”
