Poetry Day

We are delighted to let you know that we are holding a Combe Down Poetry Day on Tuesday 24^th May.  We will be celebrating all poetry under the theme ‘the great outdoors’.  Poems linked to nature, wildlife, animals, plants and more will be shared across the day by teachers and a special visitor to Years 5 &6, local poet Sophie Dumont.  If you would like to read more about Sophie, please click on this link to her bio. 

On the day, the children will be listening to, sharing, learning and performing a variety of poetry read by staff and children alike.  Some of the poetry performances will be shared via TEAMS in the following few days. 

It promises to be a really enjoyable and fun day for all! 

Do please discuss your favourite poems at home and share with us if you like.
