Power to the Poem
Power to the Poem is an initiave created by Mrs Carlisle. Although Mrs Carlisle has moved on to pastures new, she has left a legacy in Power to the Poem which we will continue.
Every week, pupils are introduced to a poem from our curriculum. The poem is shared in class but if a bubble is isolating at home then please do share the poem of the week with your child.
Please write any comments about the poem on Class Dojo, where the poem will also be uploaded weekly.
