Poetry

Poetry is an important aspect fo our English curriculum.  We believe it is important to expose our children to a wide range of poets and poetry forms about a variety of subjects. 

"The best poetry says something that lasts. It leaves a footprint deep in the earth of what it means to be human." Morag Styles

Our poetry curriculum is structured into four threads: Anthologies or Collections; Forms; Poems to Innovate; and Great Poets and Poems. Through these threads our children listen, discuss, respond, write and perform poetry.
