My name is Junelle and in the holidays I had the pleasure of going to the speech and drama competitions, held at the Performing Arts Centre in the University.  I competed in the character recital and prose.  I got very lucky and came first in both.  For the character recital we had to memorise it and I acted Wednesday Addams.  While competing in the prose section, I read from a part in the book Wonder, by RJ Palacio.  All thanks to my amazing teacher Dianne Yates.
