Youth of the Year Competition – Crestwood Lions Club

Crestwood Lions Club conducted its annual Youth of the Year Competition on Thursday

November 15. Maskan Jain from Year 11 represented the School admirably in both the Public

Speaking and Youth Citizenship components of the contest. This is a world wide competition

conducted by Lions International giving Senior Students an opportunity to show their prowess

in Public Speaking and their interest in both their Local and Global Community through active

participation and sound general knowledge.

The competition was very strong as usual with students from William Clarke and Crestwood

High giving Maskan a very tough challenge, however she represented B.H.H.S. exceptionally

well receiving high praise from the judges, for both her interest and knowledge as well as her

proactive involvement.

Congratulations to Maskan for giving up her time to prepare and attend this prestigious

competition.

Should any other students be interested there are several Lions Clubs in the area who will hold

this event in early 2019.
