Our Words and Movements Snatched Gold!

Our small "animals" with the adjudicator
[4 Dec 2018] BIG CONGRATULATIONS to our junior boys, Ms Jenny Ho and Miss Fiona Tsui for the joint effort to win (scored 87) in Words and Movements in 70th Hong Kong Schools Speech Festival.

Our boys dramatized Knapp's poem ​“The Lying Lion” which impressed the adjudicator. In his written comments, Adjudicator Mr Paul Trigg said, ​“
Very well dressed group as various animals - they spoke their lines very clearly and in perfect unison. And the lion had a good strong presence and voice. The zebras ran about the stage with energy and facially told the lion that it was the bee which would call the lion's bluff. The bee in a beautiful costume rose from a bush where it had been hiding and caused the lion to run off. Very well performed with great tonal variety, pace and above all, energy.”

This was not at all easy to achieve such a remarkable result in this category with all the capable teams in addition to the very fact that it was our first time joining this category without almost any prior knowledge of what Words and Movements actually looked like.

What a feat! We broke new grounds! Isn't it what we should be doing particularly under this year's Gen!Us theme? Congratulations again to everybody!

Congratulations to the team once again! Miss Tsui cannot be any happier knowing that everyone has tried their very best and excelled in their roles. I'd also love to take this opportunity to give thanks to the parents and teachers who have provided tremendous support to the team along the way. I am SUPER proud of you, Words and Movements Team!

This is the very first time I try this category - Words and Movements. I had a great time exploring with the boys how our chosen piece could be presented to the audience through words and movements. The boys were all very creative and they could always come up with terrific ideas! BOYS, thank you for all your contribution and devotion! I’m so proud of you!

Special thanks should also be given to our beloved parents for all the help and support throughout the whole training process!

It's lovely to see all these warm remarks from our boys' parents. I'm sure we couldn't have achieved anything near this without the love, trust and support from our whole-hearted YW parents.Thanks to you all!!!
