📖 National Poetry Day at The Mall

The whole school got involved in National Poetry Day today, bringing poetry to life through art, performance, dance, music – and even a little French.

Reception worked together to create an acrostic poem about all the things they love in class, while Year 1 explored poetry through percussion 🥁 and Year 2 wrote rich, descriptive autumnal poems. 🍂

Year 3 brought The Pied Piper to life, Year 4 performed poems about witches and Year 5 went one step further – learning a poem about a naughty witch in French! Poetry popped up across the curriculum too, from exploring Holst’s Planets Suite to expressing movement and ideas through gymnastics. 🤸

And in Year 6, poetry opened up an important conversation in PSHE about the impact of bullying and how we can help each other to ‘sort it together’.

A busy day of words, rhythm, movement, performance and plenty of imagination. ✨
