Intro Script for the RYC

Southerly: Hi! I’m Southerly.

Ellie: And I’m Ellie.

Southerly: And welcome to our presentation, Put Away your Camera and Save your Yarra!

Ellie: You might be curious about our name, and that came to be by us noticing that many people love the Yarra River – they take pictures of it, do paintings of it, and so on. But they have never realised that the Yarra would never be the same without its wildlife.

Southerly: So our aim today is to raise awareness of the dramatising issue of the endangered animals in the Yarra and to get people out there and doing something about it!

Ellie: Because it’s your Yarra, and it’s not going to save itself!

Southerly: Today, we have two presenters, Natalie and Bess, who will tell you about three different animals and how close they are to extinction, or if they’re already extinct after all! We will also hold a Quick-Quiz at the end to test your listening skills – with great prizes, of course!

Ellie: But before a presentation takes place on a certain animal, Southerly will be hosting a “Guess Who” to see if you can guess the animal pre-presentation. If you guess the correct answer, you will get a prize. So I’m off, and take it away, Southerly!
