The Poet Laureate

We truly are a very lucky school to have such wonderful opportunities-today was another superb day full of drama, poetry and writing. Mr. Sanders and Mr. Cartwright, students from Plymouth, lead a great day, the children showed just how outstanding they are by freeze framing each stanza of the Poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson " Charge of The Light Brigade " (GCSE level work I'm sure!!!!)  Before they knew what the poem was, they were shown some images - some children even managed to remember back to Year 2 and identified The Crimean War!!!!! We then went on to write letters sent home written by a soldier the day before they went into battle with the learning objective to use emotive language!!!!!!

Brilliant, moving letters!!!!! A super big well done!!!!!!

Please keep practising your song words!!!!!!

Thanks again Mr. Sanders and Mr. Cartwright!!!
