Black History Month!
This year, for Black history Month, we will be holding a public speaking competition for the children in y4-y6.
However this was extended to Year 3 and two children have decided that they would like to take part - Manessa and Mason!
The theme will be 'Black Figures' and the winners will present in a whole school assembly at the end of the month.
The children will need to select a 'black hero' and write a speech explain why this person is heroic to them. Alongside their speech, children are allowed to create posters, power points etc
The cut off for BHM public speaking projects will be WB 18th October.
The preliminary rounds to be held in class on Tuesday 19th October.
A winner from Year 3 will then be selected to compete against a winner from Year 4, 5 & 6.
We will then hold our final in front of the entire school in the afternoon of Thursday 21st October - 1.30 pm.
GOOD LUCK YEAR 3!
We look forward to hearing your amazing speeches :)
