Yesterday, we celebrated National Poetry Day by exploring lots of poetry in class and having a special poetry assembly. Year 4 have been practising our poem by Paul Cookson all week and the children delivered it in front of the school beautifully.
They projected their voices fantastically and recited the poem with great prosody. They even learnt it off by heart – well done Year 4!
