Best Year for a Decade for Maidenhead Youth
Over the last few weeks, Tony Hill and Pat Lattimer, members of the Rotary Youth Committee, have been handing out awards to young people from four schools across the town as part of the 2016 Rotary Youth Competition. This competition covers photography, writing and public speaking in the following categories:
Young Writer 11-13
Young Photographer 11-13
Young Photographer 14-18
Youth Speaks 11-13
Youth Speaks 14-18
At Holyport College, Desborough College and Newlands Girls’ School, cheques, plaques and certificates have been presented to winners and runners up in these Maidenhead competitions. Every young person who took part received a certificate of entry. Their final presentation will be at Claires Court School. Youth Service Chairman, Tony Hill, said “It says a lot for the ambition of these Maidenhead Schools, that their young people enter public competition. Above all this year, surrounded as we have been by public debate, it was impressive to see schools empowering and educating young men and women in public speaking; then giving confidence to them to enter their wonderful writing and photographic images.”
