Part of a a longstanding tradition at Trillium Woods is our riveting Junior Public Speaking Competition. Our junior grades (4, 5, 6) work in their language classes to write, polish and perform a 3-5 minute speech on a topic of their choice. Students demonstrating exceptional performance delivering their classroom speech are selected to compete against other students in the gym at the formal school competition.
