“Hold fast to dreams,
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird,
That cannot fly.”
― Langston Hughes

Anticipation filled the air as the results were announced. Overall, it was a
survival of a fittest. Nonetheless, hats off to everyone for taking part whole-heartedly and making the most out of the event.

Starting off with the winner of secondary 1, we have Paris with a beautifully crafted and beautifully recited poem.

The winner for secondary 2 was Kendra with a speech which was
definitely a true aspiration.
