I love the energy of sharing ideas on stage and connecting with an audience. I’m excited for the opportunity to learn, grow, and hopefully bring my own ideas to the stage soon!"Arwen Ruan is from Year 9 at Wellington College."I have always wanted to participate in the TEDx event, but it took a lot of courage to stand up on that stage alone and present a whole speech with so many people looking at me. A friend of mine signed up for the event a few years ago. She stood on that stage, and as I watched her deliver her speech, I became inspired. I could be the one confidently expressing my passions, and giving an opinion on an interesting question. So, I decided to sign up this year, step out of my comfort zone and try something new.
