Literacy Week Poetry Competition

April 19, 2016
Well done to all the wonderful wordsmiths who entered our Literacy Week poetry competition; over 80 pupils submitted an entry and it was very difficult to choose our favourites. For originality, careful language selection and poems which captured their audience, a winner from each year group was chosen and rewarded with their own poetry anthology.
