Info:

Speech competition for all students of Spanish in New Zealand schools and whose teacher is a member of STANZA.

Students studying Levels 1, 2 and 3 NCEA or the equivalent may enter at the appropraite level. Students at Year 10 may enter the Level 1 category if their teacher gives approval.Scholarship: This category is for native speaker candidates but may also be entered by those students thinking about presenting for the Scholaship exam this year.

Given the ability of students now to use AI and other offerings on the internet, a large part of the grading for prizes this year will be based on presentation. I have not created a rubric as yet but will share it with you shortly. If you have any questions or suggestions don’t hesitate to email me.
