Welcome to Rostrum Club 18

Learn public speaking and meeting procedures in a relaxed, supportive yet professional environment

Rostrum Club 18 members are friendly and supportive. Our ages range from 22 to about 70. Our backgrounds are as varied as our interests: the Public Service, small business, teaching, the police, academe, IT, financial institutions and the Law. With our diverse experience and interests, we learn a great deal from each other as well as improving our communication. Our meetings are characterized by variety, interest and humour,

Previous members have included a film producer, Parliamentarian, senior Police Officer, an artist salespersons, and businesspeople.

Under the guidance of an experienced and trained senior member, we spend a short time dealing with business – and learning how to participate in and manage a meeting, followed by various speaking exercises including speeches, role play and sometimes word games. Members may ask to be rostered to give presentations or make particular types of speeches for example, a speech at a wedding by a Best Man.

Rostrum Club 18 meets each Wednesday from 6.30 to 8.45pm, in the Police Club over a two course meal costing $15. 

 We very much enjoy having visitors who are not asked to speak (although they may participate if they wish.)  Why not come and look us over?

Fees are very affordable- $35 per session ( six months). No previous public speaking experience is required to join.
