POETRY 4 ALL

This year in English, our students across primary and secondary took part in a competition hosted by Emirates Literature Festival called "Poetry 4 All". The competition involves students learning a range of poems, by writers such as William Blake, and selecting their favourite to recite, from heart, in front of a large audience.

Our Primary finalist was Lara El Khouri from 5CKE and our Secondary finalist was Jasmine Werkhoven from Year 8. These impressive young students competed with students across Dubai and showed immense skill, confidence and bravery on stage. We were incredibly proud of everyone that took part which is why we ran internal poetry competitions during assembly, too. Seven fantastic Year 7 pupils took part in the internal Poetry 4 All competition and performed in front of the entire year group!

A massive well done to: Havana (7K), Siya (7B), Mir (7A), Aanya (7I), Aadya (7I) and Alana (7A). And a huge congratulations to Hadi (7S) who won the competition!

Well done to everyone involved.
