WW1 Centenary poetry

Year 6 have been writing some fabulous poetry this week inspired by our reading of some First World War poetry, looking at medals and a Princess Mary chocolate box from the war, as well as finding out about the individual stories behind their medals for some soldiers. More poetry will be posted over the weekend, but a taster has been posted below.

We are also in the process of creating some slides and readings of our poetry. A few have been completed in time for the Centenary on Sunday. Click on the image below to see this short movie of readings and images.

Well done Year 6. You have all tackled some really difficult issues this week and been brilliant in responding to them. You are amazing poets and should be very proud of what you have achieved since Monday.
