Enter the competition

I, myself, have drafted my speech.

I have read the judging criteria to ensure your speech will be rated highly.

I have viewed the Tips page to enhance my speech.

I have edited my speech after considering the criteria and the tips.

I have read my speech out loud and timed it to confirm it is under 3 minutes long.

I have counted the words in my speech and made sure it is not longer than 500 words.

I have checked the Terms and conditions to make sure my speech is appropriate and will be accepted.

I have imagined myself being flown to Canberra and presenting my speech to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and other guests at Parliament House!

Congratulations, you are now ready to submit your speech.
