The competition
Students are invited to create a 2-4 minute vlog answering the question:
"What does liberation mean to you?"

- interpretation of brief;
- creativity;
- presentation skills; and
- enthusiasm.
A shortlist of applicants will be invited to present their speech to a panel in the week commencing 10th February 2020.
Prizes
