Little Amal Book based upon a Class 5 poem

Class 5 were inspired by Brian Bilston's amazing 'Refugees' poem as well as the journey of 'Little Amal' from Syria, across Europe, to the UK. They made their own versions of 'Forwards/Backwards' poems about the issue of the right to education for all - including refugees. The book is built around this poem, which is at its heart.

Current Class 6 enjoyed a selection of short humours poems so much that they spontaneously started to construct their own. With a real Milligan style flavour, we hope you enjoy these poems and illustrations - composed, drawn and performed by current Year 6.

The second instalment of poetry from current Y6 in response to some funny shirt poems we studied in a SPaG lesson. Even SPaG can get your creative side flowing. Thanks to Jim Edmiston from 'Headstart' and Spike Milligan for the inspiration. We recommend reading the short 'Magnetic Sheep' and 'Invisible Chickens' poems.
