A huge well done to our two pupils who will have their entries to the Stratford Literacy Festival's Felix Dennis Poetry Competition included in the anthology of poems from the event. Keep an eye out for the anthology which will soon be added to our school library. In the meantime, have a look at the two entries here:
Emily - Year 4 | Thomas - Year 3 |
The Ocean
The ocean is blue, It even fools you, The ocean is calm, But it can cause harm.
The ocean, the sand, You’re holding my hand. A sudden close shave, A humongous wave!
The ocean, so blue, The tides that renew, The currents, the waves, It rarely behaves.
The ocean, the blue, I’m sharing with you, The sun and the shimmer, The elegant swimmer.
| About a horse
The horse skipped, and ran and ran and tripped and ran to his Mum with a very sore tum. She offered him grass but he said “Thanks, but I’ll pass.’’ His Mother got him to the doctor in a yellow helicopter. The doctor said: “You will be well if I cast a spell.’’ She said the spell like this: “Zip zap zo make this horse go, make this horse wetter and make him better!’’ It began to rain and that eased the pain and he felt better again. He returned to the stable and ate at the table some flowers which gave him mystical powers. Next he sings and grows some wings and flies in the sky and can never die. He takes a bus with a pegasus who becomes his best friend and that is the end. |
Keep an eye out for much more coming soon!
