Community Safety

SPEECHMAKING COMPETITION - 2005

The winning team of Emma Montgomery and Colleen Tait who were from Stewarton Academy, will retain the Andrew Nisbet Trophy for one year. Emma and Colleen were each presented with small silver cups and a £20.00 book token.

The theme was "It'll never happen to me", which allowed the teams to explore the belief that we must not be complacent and take responsibility for our own actions.

Judges for the Competition were Councillor Jim Raymond, Vice Chair of East Ayrshire Community Services Committee; Alex Milligan, Editor, Kilmarnock Standard and Sgt. Ian Haynes, Strathclyde Police.

Emma and Colleen went on to win the semi-final of the competition held at Paisley. The Final was held at Selkirk.

The competition will be held next year at Stewarton Academy.
