Numerous opportunities exist for learners to take part in Public Speaking. The Senior and Junior Internal Public Speaking competitions take place during the first term. At the same time, learners are invited to take part in the Van Huyssteens' Orators Competition, either as individuals or in teams. Learners are invited to attend a six-week course in Public Speaking called Presentation Skills. It culminates in a gala event where participants get the opportunity to showcase their newly acquired skills. We invite the winners to take part in the English Evening and also the Poetry Slam. In the middle of the year, learners can participate in Radikale Redenaars (both English and Afrikaans), On the Tip of my Tongue, and the National Public Speaking Interschools League. We also take part in Debating.
