Initiated by the vice-president of the association, Victor Gérale, and after several qualifying phases since the end of 2020, the final took place this afternoon, Wednesday, June 2, 2021.
Lola, the winner, has been preparing since this weekend on the subject “Should we burn love letters?” “. A theme that immediately “inspired” her. “His speech was very poetic, symbolic,” notes the organizer of the eloquence contest.
It’s a very good oral workout, although I was a little stressed at first and tended to hide behind my desk. I loosened up more during the second part of my presentation and held on for 11 minutes.
Palmares
The jury, made up of teachers of French, English, a CPE, a supervisor and Victor, had to decide between seven candidates, “it was played out on the small details”.
