Launched in 2008, this annual competition seeks to engender self confidence, improve communication skills and ultimately encourage girls to play a more prominent role in public life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How does it fulfil the Soroptimist goals?<\/span>
\nIt empowers<\/strong> \u2013 giving girls the confidence to speak publicly<\/span>
\nIt enables<\/strong> \u2013 we give them the means to showcase their skills<\/span>
\nIt educates<\/strong> \u2013 it encourages the girls to research their chosen subject<\/span><\/p>\n

The judges\u2019 task always proves challenging when presented with such interesting and intelligent speeches, delivered with great determination,<\/span> passion and courage by these 10 and 11 year olds.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On Friday 11th March, our Loud & Proud event took place after the pandemic postponements. 12 year 6 girls from 6 schools competed and we were all filled with pride to hear their incredible submissions. There were 4 judges including our regional president Yvonne Freeman with the Mayor of Croydon in attendance. Favoured topics were The Pandemic and Our Hero\/Heroine. First prize went to Shwetika Arun from St Peter\u2019s Primary School with My \u201cExpectations if I were to join a women\u2019s group like the Soroptimists\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
