Thank you for the invitation to judge at this event, what a wonderful opportunity. I cannot imagine how the event can have gone any more smoothly. I was anticipating the organized chaos of the academic events my children participated in in days gone by and barely saw a hint of that. You said on several occasions that not only would I enjoy the event, but I would leave with a sense of optimism for the future and you were right. What wonderful young people were the young speech-makers I heard and how creative and energetic they were. I could have listened all night. So kudos to you and the rest of the organizing team. I hope the students enjoyed themselves as much as this judge did.
