Congratulations to our amazing speaker in Year 10, who was recently crowned the Regional Champion at the 2018-19 “Speak Out” Challenge! Waltham Forest Regional Final. Her speech, entitled ‘Markings’, defeated competition from sixteen other students from across the borough to earn her this title.

She will now be invited on a variety of trips, including to the Houses of Parliament, and will progress to the semi-final of the competition with a chance of speaking in the Grand Final at a West End theatre in July. We wish her the best of luck with the next stage of the competition and congratulate her for representing Walthamstow Academy so excellently.
