This Gala aims to give participants a chance to use English to act out interesting stories in a genuine and engaging way in order to cultivate their interest in English.
Due to the pandemic in the past year, the Gala will be held online and run with “video submission mode” this year to ensure safety of participants. Participants will have to video record the performance and submit it online for adjudication. A live video streaming award presentation ceremony will be held online on 27st March, 2019 (Saturday), with announcement of the results, display of winning works and adjudicator sharing.
