Poetry House Challenge

Houses Test, Beaulieu, Itchen and Hamble decided to host a Poetry Challenge this half term, to support their work in the Poetry By Heart competition.

Our Reading Ambassadors chose four friendship poems, one for each house, and were challenged to make a display together, as well as to learn the poem off by heart. Years 1-6 in each house worked together to make their displays - we think they are just lovely!

These are the poems the children learned and created artwork for:

My Friend Tree by Lorine Niedecker - Hamble 

Friendship by Anonymous - Beaulieu

A Friend Ship by Roger Stevens - Test, 

Friends by Matt Goodfellow - Itchen

We love that our children are taking the initiative on leading their own projects in school, driven by their interests!
