3. CANCELLATION POLICY

Written notice of withdrawal/cancellation must be received by the ATKV at least 30 days before.

The start of the first preliminary round in your region. If the event is cancelled by the ATKV, the entry fee

will be refunded.

3.1 Course of the competition

The competition is as follows: preliminary rounds, semi-finals and national finals. The ATKV determines the

number of participants taking part in the semi-final round. The schools will be notified and the names of the

participants for the semi-finals will appear 10 days after the completion of the preliminary rounds on the

ATKV website, www.atkv.org.za. The number of participants taking part in the final is determined by the

ATKV and depends on the number of entries per region.

4. THEMES

Home language

GRADE 1 - 3

manners

dream

lie

Home language and additional language

GRADE 4 - 5 GRADE 6 - 7 GRADE 8 - 9 GRADE 10 - 12

save fear truth navigate

art thinking images ropes

frowning dance doors magnets

From the theme, a topic must be formulated that contains a position, and the point of view must be based

on arguments and sources. In other words, it is a reasoned speech and not a talk.

Participants will be penalised if speeches from previous years and/or duplicated speeches are delivered.

VERY IMPORTANT: we reiterate our request to discourage participants and parents from buying speeches. Rather, we encourage them to order and purchase the ATKV manual for writing speeches. The order form is available on the ATKV website, www.atkv.org.za. It has come to the attention of the ATKV that more and more people and organisations ride on the ATKV’s name and, without the ATKV’s permission or knowledge, write “ATKV” speeches and courses – even finishing courses. These people only do this for their own financial gain and the ATKV is not involved with any of these people or organisations.

becomes clear that the learner does not meet the criteria, it will lead to the disqualification of the learner.
