        Rotary Four Way Test Speech Contest 
 
 The Four Way Test speech contest is a competition for secondary school students. The 5-6-minute speech highlights the concepts of the Rotary Four Way Test, creates an opportunity for students to develop their public speaking skills and provides Rotary with valuable exposure within the community. The contest is open to students who are in Year 10 for the first round in September and in Year 11 by the time of the District final in March of the following year. The heats are held in local areas. The winners progress to the District final.
