We’ve been developing our talking and listening skills this Term, in prep for a public speaking competition in Holyrood (for those who wish to participate).

Here’s some vids of us in action playing the ’30 second chat’ game, where you have to choose a random subject from the hat and talk about it for thirty seconds. Trust us, it’s a lot harder than it sounds!

They did really well under the pressure of the clock. Why don’t you challenge a family member to try the same activity, giving them a theme or a statement to discuss!
