Last week at Greenfield Community College we hosted the final of our “Slam It” performance poetry competition. Since September students in Year 6 at Chilton Primary School, and Year 8 at Greenfield have been working with performance poet Kate Fox and Alfie Crow to hone their skills, write their poems, and add their own creative flare to their performances. This project is a great example of finding innovative ways to develop skills, learn new things and work in a different way.
The final event was a great success, with all of the students performing fantastically and showing parents and visitors how talented they are!
We would like to say a huge thank you to Kate Fox, the staff at Chilton & Greenfield and the young people involved, including our fantastic Year 10 mentors from Greenfield- they all worked very hard and the results were fantastic. Thank you also to the parents and members of the community who came to the event on Thursday, we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!
