Year 5 Castleton Library Visit
Over the last 2 weeks, Year 5 have had the pleasure of walking to Castleton Library to be involved in a poetry workshop ran by Rochdale's very own Poet Laureate Sammy Weaver. The children were able to listen to some of her amazing poetry and were given the opportunity to create their very own poetry, inspired by potions and spells to make the world a better place.
Sammy shared lots of interesting insight into the life of a poet, including how she lives on a narrow boat! The children really enjoyed getting stuck in and produced some really incredible and imaginative spells that they loved sharing with each other and the class. This session has really helped the children with their creative writing with some even deciding to write their own stories as a result!
