I enjoy it when students accept the challenge to participate in an event that is new to them, like from a group category to an individual event. We try to practice at school so they will be comfortable delivering the material on their own. I am just amazed with their excitement and hard work. I have seen positive changes among them, from being shy to becoming confident and independent. Of course, the support and help of our dear partners, the parents and guardians, is invaluable. I am looking forward to seeing more students participate in PGFC and developing their skills in public speaking in the future,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n<p>All of the nine first graders who joined PGFC this school year are all qualified to join the regional competition next month at GCA along with other students from Kinder 5 to 5th grades. <\/p>\n<p>GCA is proud of all their PGFC participants and says thank to all the teachers, judges, and student volunteers for all their help.
