Selection of Speeches made by Year 11 Students

Here is a selection of speeches made by our Year 11 Students in their English Spoken Language Assessment…

Females vs Femininity vs Feminism

Females. By definition, females are the sex that can bear offspring or produce eggs, distinguished biologically by the production of gametes, which can be fertilised by male gametes. Femininity. What is femininity? Femininity can be defined as the quality of being female: womanliness. Feminism. What is your idea of feminism and what is the actual meaning of feminism. The accurate definition of feminism is the advocacy of women’s rights on the ground of equality of the sexes.

Mental Health

Panic. It sits comfortably in our stomachs, keeping quiet for the time being. It stalks the thoughts that swirl innocently in our minds, waiting for us to let our guard’s down; then it strikes. It slams into us, we lose focus. Then, it suffocates us; silently we scream for help, we are scared. Help us, we can’t breathe. Then it is gone, but we are still scared.

Loneliness. It enhances that feeling of hatred towards ourselves, leaving us numb to our surroundings. Sometimes it is all in our heads, we have people there. They talk, we talk back. They laugh, we laugh back. Yet, on the inside, behind the façade of ‘we are fine’, they are living, we are numb.

Sadness. It is a sly creature. It manipulates our every move, our every thought. We’re breaking. Now, distant in our minds, the dark thoughts leach of our mentality.  Our happy memories ruined. Our laughter tarnished. Our lives are crumbling away. We are broken.

What do we look like? Do we look crazy? Do we look insane? Do we look dangerous?

Body Image by Benjamin S.

Body Image, two words that are undoubtedly engraved in our minds forever. The reason for this of course is the media and it is boasting of the thin ideal and unrealistic standards of people when it comes to their personal appearance. In this speech, I will be discussing the harsh reality of the media that surrounds us and its effects. Examples of this could include adding a filter to boost your complexion to even eating disorders and mental illness.

So what is body image?
