On January 15, we held our 18th Zion Cup English Contest. Held every year, our contest offers Year 1 students the chance to give a speech, and Year 2 and 3 students the oppotunity to make presentations. This year’s topic was “Life Changing Events”, and the students gave many interesting presentations. During the second semester, all students gave presentations and speeches in their classes, and from these today’s finalists were chosen. Here are the results and some photos:
