NPCS Celebrates National Poetry Day

Northumberland Park celebrated National Poetry Day on Friday 12th Ocotber . This year the theme was “Stars”.  Ms Raheem’s quiz proved very popular and Year 6s had a fabulous time in the “Star Chamber” composing poems.
In English KS3 students worked on composing Cinquains – five line poems but quite difficult  to construct because of the syllable rules.
Please find below an example from one of our students in Year 7:
Wishing
On a bright star
Twinkling in the dark sky
All alone but still believing
Glowing
