Time to Talk

The Time to Talk Public Speaking Competition 2025/26 is organised by the Regional NET Coordinating Team (RNCT), Native-speaking English Teacher (NET) Section, Curriculum Development Institute (CDI), Education Bureau.

The Time to Talk Public Speaking Competition is an inclusive competition that aims to engage students of all ability levels to:

  • learn public speaking techniques to hone their presentation skills;
  • promote reading and creative use of English;
  • experiment with the use of English to develop confidence in front of an audience; and
  • develop research, collaboration and IT skills to improve their communication.

Our senior students had a great time preparing for the competition in groups. They learnt about researching, organizing ideas, writing scripts and presenting in front of an audience. It was a fruitful experience for our students.
