Toastmasters'
Graduation 2007

their graduation of the course by
holding a formal dinner in the College
Hall. The dinner was entirely organised
by the Toastmasters and each had a
role to play on the evening. The Toastmasters
held a speech competition and the
three winners of this competition
delivered speeches at the dinner.
They were Leon Laubscher, Celliers
Verster and Tammy Harrison.
Mr Richard Spoor was the honorary
guest speaker and delivered a passionate,

all the participants. Shanine Viljoen
was the Master of Ceremonies and Simangele
