National Poetry Day

This year's theme is 'Your Voice Counts'. At Upwell Academy, we place great importance on celebrating all things literary.

On Thursday 3 October it was National Poetry Day, an annual mass celebration to encourage all to enjoy, discover and share poetry. This year, the theme was “Your Voice Counts’’ and this was interpreted through verse in a wide and wonderful number of ways.

The underlying message for our students was to think deeper about the concept of the importance of everyone having ‘a voice’ and what it means to different people.

All classes presented poems to the whole school. It was a wonderful celebration and thank you to Mrs Fisher for organising it for us!
