📮💛 Sharing the Joy of Poetry with Our Local Community 💛📮
Last week, our whole school came together to celebrate National Poetry Day.
Our children put their creativity and imagination to work writing poems and even illustrating them, before taking them out into our local village and delivering them through the letterboxes of residents in our community.
It was wonderful to see the children so excited to share their writing with others and to think about the joy their words might bring to someone else. This was about much more than poetry; it was an opportunity for our children to develop their literacy and writing, to see that writing has a purpose beyond the classroom and see that their words and kindness can make a difference to others.
We are incredibly proud of the thought, imagination and enthusiasm shown by all of our children. We hope our little poems brought a smile to many doors around the village and brightened someone's day.
Words can connect us — and what better way to celebrate poetry than by sharing them with our community? 📖
