National Poetry Day

Our academy will be taking part in a poetry competition as part of the nationwide celebration of National Poetry Day. This year, National Poetry Day is on Thursday, 2nd October.

Our competition, titled “I have a Dream,” will give every KS2 pupil a chance to write their own poem. On Thursday, 2nd October, all pupils will spend time in class writing and exploring this important theme. We’ll be encouraging them to think about their own hopes and dreams for the future and how they can express those thoughts through creative language.

The best part of this competition is the potential for your child to become a published author! The winning poems from our academy will be submitted, where they will be judged alongside thousands of other entries from across the country. A selection of the best poems will be chosen for publication in a book
