On Saturday 9th November we held our West Junior Speechmaking and Quiz in Fenwick Church Hall, Ayrshire.<\/p>\n
We had 8 teams competing in the speechmaking from across the region on the day, presenting on a wide range of topics. We are grateful to our competition judges; Alison and Jim Dykes and Mhairi Dalgliesh who were all thoroughly impressed by the high standard from all competitors. In the end it was the team from Kilmaurs Young Farmers Club who came out on top, impressing the judges with their presenting topic \u2018The Education System Is Failing Us\u2019 A fantastic achievement.<\/p>\n
