Class DB took part in a Public Speaking contest.
They all wrote a speech about an inspirational British person.
We looked at some video of famous speakers such as Martin Luther King or President Obama and the type of language and techniques used.
The children did some research about their chosen person's life, achievements and lasting influence.
Speeches were then drafted and redrafted.
During the contest the children had to stand on a stage and deliver their speech (with clarity and passion) to an audience including Mrs Picton.
All of the children were nervous but found the experience very rewarding.
The results were impressive - you can see some the speeches can be seen below.
