National Poetry Day Competition

National Poetry Day is on Thursday 28th September and to celebrate we are asking our students to write their own poem about Freedom and they will be entered into LSA’s Poetry Competition.

Each class teacher will choose the best two poems from their class and the two winning entries will be passed on to Miss Jackson to be judged. 

There will be a prize for the top 3 poems! And the winning poems will also go on display in Miss Jackson’s room.

The deadline to submit the poems is the last day of half term.

Good Luck!
