Given a week's notice, kinder parents were to prepare and coach their child into a 2 minute speech in front of an adjudicator, part of the public speaking semi-finals for the region. What??
After parental outrage, the teachers said the children didn't have to give a 2 min speech, just memorise 3 sentences and repeat standing in front of the class. Abigail delayed discussing the speech , managing only to nominate the topic she wanted to to. So Priscilla just wrote a list of possible sentences and left it for Abigail to see at breakfast time. She picked 3 sentences and re-wrote them, but didn't set about memorising. Today after school she mentioned that some children had made their speeches but she didn't as she couldn't remember hers. No desire to try tho.
