Fantastic NAEC Speakers

Katie Ohlke | Jun 10, 2010

Riley Kay, Grade 2 student at NAEC, represented her school at the annual Royal Canadian Legion Public Speaking competitions in the Grades 1--3 category.  Riley first traveled to Northbrook then on to Sharbot Lake, Eganville and Brighton placing first at three of these four competitions.  The final competition would have qualified Riley for the provincial competition held in Kirkland Lake.  Although Riley made a strong presentation, she did not move on to this level.  This is an amazing accomplishment for Riley and everyone at NAEC is very proud of her.  Riley is looking forward to participating in next year's speeches.  Congratulations Riley!!
