Next week is National Poetry Day on Thursday 7th October.

In school all classes from Y1-Y6 will be perform a poem to the school in assembly.

We would also like children to take part in a competition at home: please make up a poem about space as we celebrate space week on 11th October. 

Your poem could rhyme, it could be in an interesting shape, it could be acrostic. Any idea as long as it is about space!

Please bring in your poem to school and hand it in to your teachers by Friday 8th October if you would like to be entered into the competition.

There will be three prizes- one for Year 1 or 2, one for Year 3 or 4 and one for Year 5 or 6. 

Please read some poems at home with your family too.

Have a look at About National Poetry Day - National Poetry Day for some ideas.

We can't wait to see your poems :)
