05.10.23 National Poetry Day

We put our writing skills to the test today as we wrote our own poems for National Poetry day. This year’s theme was based around Refuge. As a class we decided to use an acrostic style format to create our poem. We ended up with some beautiful takes on the theme. No doubt we have some future poets on our hands!
