UNEARTHED Aaron Miah, aged 9, Leweston Prep School
D
uring the remote learning period, Leweston Prep students looked at the role of the NHS through their PSHE lessons, thinking about how the NHS have helped them as individuals. Aaron Miah, Year 5, felt particularly motivated by this topic as the NHS have played an integral part in his family’s life. He decided to enter the ‘Step into the NHS’ competition and submitted a fantastic video recital of his poem ‘A Thank You to the NHS’. The judging panel for the primary schools’ competition, which included TV personality Dr Ronx from the popular CBBC series Operation Ouch, were impressed by Aaron’s heartfelt delivery and expressive words. Of the 123 entries for the Thames Valley and Wessex region, Aaron was delighted to be crowned the winner. He received a certificate and Amazon voucher, which was presented by an NHS Ambassador during a virtual whole school assembly. Aaron said, ‘When I entered I thought wow, imagine if I won and a couple of months later, I actually did win! My brother is ill and when I thought about all of the names that have helped me and my brother, that’s when I got the idea to write the poem. I am really thankful to all the people that helped in the NHS with me, my little brother and everyone.’
