🎭✨ This morning, St Mary’s marked National Poetry Day with a fantastic whole-school assembly! Each year group took to the stage to perform a poem they had been during their drama slots and every single child delivered their piece with confidence and flair. Their hard work and brilliant oracy skills shone through!

The poems performed were:
❤️🧺 Year 1 – Little Red Riding Hood
🦉🐱 Year 2 – The Owl and the Pussycat
🌿🐞 Year 3 – Nature Trail
🐉✨ Year 4 – The Tale of Custard the Dragon
🎉🗣️ Year 5 – The Word Party
⚠️📜 Year 6 – A Cautionary Verse

A huge well done to all our pupils – what a wonderful celebration of poetry! 🎬🎭

Up, up and away! Today, Year 2 had an exciting immersive experience as we transformed our classroom into an aeroplane to take an imaginary flight to the Arctic! Through role-play, they had their own boarding passes and experienced the journey from the South Pole to the North Pole before piecing together the story of our focus text – Poles Apart. #englishstm #year2stm See MoreSee Less
