Kirkcudbright Rotary Club recently held its annual Youth Speaks event for primary schools.
Students from five schools, all partner primaries of Kirkcudbright Academy, took part. Speaking for between three and five minutes each, the 14 students took part in front of an appreciative audience of teachers, parents and Rotarians, all seated in the main hall in Kirkcudbright Primary School.
The students bravely spoke on diverse topics including the environment, natural disasters, Henry VIII and this three wives, Harry Kane, World War II, crocs, monkeys, dogs, swimming, skiing, and cycle safety.
Three Rotarians – Louise Finch, John Johnson and Gerry Hassan – acted as assessors on the night. They gave brief but meaningful and helpful advice to each of the speakers before finally declaring which talk had been their favourite talk.
Each of the chosen three students, Calli (farming), Loic (Lego) and Isis (our sheep) were awarded £10 book tokens.

Over the course of 2022, a Nicole Kidman-narrated ad for AMC Theatres has evolved from a campy meme into something of a communal prayer offered at the secular chapel of the movie theater. The fragments she incants evocatively describe the power of cinema when wielded at its maximalist best: “we go somewhere we’ve never been before,” “dazzling images on a huge silver screen,” “sound I can feel.” The year ends for audiences with a movie that genuinely deserves to follow such a paean: James Cameron’s long-delayed, much-anticipated “Avatar: The Way of Water.” READ MORE: The 25 Best Films Of 2022 The specious claims that the original “Avatar” had no cultural impact evaporate all but instantly when Cameron plunges viewers back into the realm of Pandora.
