This morning we held our poetry recital competition and there was a feeling of great excitement. The recitals were topic based so Key Stage 1 recited their poems about "Wriggle and Crawl" minibeasts and Key Stage 2 recited their poetry about "Gods and Mortals" and the Ancient Greeks. Mrs Skevington kindly came to judge and found having to make a choice very challenging due to the standard of the recitals being so high.
Mrs Skevington chose Class KH to win 'Poetry Penguin' and she shared how their poem, “Minibeast hunt” was fun, informative, enjoyable and showed great teamwork. She then announced Class HHMBr as the Key Stage 2 winners saying that their poem showed great expression, used great actions and they worked well together reciting their poem, The Minotaur, very clearly. Mrs Skevington did understand how much work had gone in to the recitals and how challenging it was for her to choose the winner as in her eyes “everyone was a winner”. Well done everybody on your recitals and to Class HHMBR and Class KH for their winning entries.
