First Place in Hector McIntosh

The School's debating and public speaking students continue to impress audiences, with more awards won this week. Lisa Jane D. won first place in the Duncan Rotary Club's Hector McIntosh Award for public speaking and Grade 12 student, Carina L., earned third prize. Both students had also won an award as Best Delegate at the Model United Nations held in February in Vancouver. The Rotary award was initiated more than 20 years ago by former Shawnigan teacher, Hector McIntosh, whose name remains emblazoned on one of the School's Chapel plates.
