FINALE and RESULT LIST OF THE JUBILEE 10TH YEAR:
The awarding ceremony took place on 18th May 2011 at the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport of the Czech Republic in Prague. The invited learners and students, their teachers and also parents viewed 14 nominated video cards in four categories. Dear guests, sponsors and jury members took part in this event. The patron of the competition, Her Excellency, the Ambassador of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland was represented by Mr Nick Groves of Her Majesty’s Embassy in Prague. Ms Miroslava Hájková and Ms Jiřina Tichá from the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport were present, as well as the Senator of the Senate of the Czech Parliament, Mr Petr Bratský. The British Council was represented by Mr Nigel Bellingham, the director. Sponsors: Mr Jan Dosoudil – Bridge Publishing House, Iva Trdá – R&R Magazine, Dana Krejzová - Oxford University Press, Petra Schneidrová – Cambridge University Press, and Ms Barbora Krasnická - KRISTOF Travel Agency.
The awarded video cards have met the major criteria of the competition. English was easy to understand, phonetically correct and the contestants also avoided basic filming mistakes, such as shooting against light backgrounds, shooting at noisy places without using a microphone or spoiling the language by too loud music. The performance of the contestants in front of the camera was also satisfying. The effectiveness of the contestants in group work and the work of the teachers in leading and facilitating the pupils was also evident. Good preparation before the shooting was also visible. The nominated video cards distinguished from most of the others also in the idea, which helped to succeed in the competition.
The audience at the Ministry was exited especially while viewing the winning video card in the youngest category. Its name was Pictures of Most and the young learners, lead by their English teacher, performed extraordinarily. Their video card was witty and full of joy and great ideas and their English was very well, so even guests from the UK and USA laughed. This video card touched many of us to the heart. Also the video card from Třebíč, very rich in language, attracted attention of the audience. The more were we all sorry, that no one could come to the premises to take over the diplomas and prizes and witness the success of this group from the grammar school Gymnázium Třebíč, Masarykovo nám. 9/116 in Třebíč, that made their video card on their own without the help of a teacher.
We’d like to thank the winners and all those placed on the 4th and ongoing places for taking part in this special competition. We hope they have gained new experience in the use of English and also during the technical processing of the contributions. An extra thank goes to those teachers, who worked with the pupils and students and helped them a lot.
We’d like to thank the Ambassador of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Her Excellency, Ms Sian Mac Leod for being the Patron of this sole competition. We also thank the Mayor of Prague 13 City District, Mr David Vodrážka, for the financial donation, which enabled us to buy prizes for the winners and we also thank the Ministry of Education for the auspices of the competition and for the possibility to use the hall at the premises of the ministry for the final ceremony and also for the financial grant, from which we could partly refund travel expenses to the competitors. Thanks to all dear guests, who took part in this ceremony.
We’d also like to thank the jury, for the enormous effort in evaluating the record number of contributions.
