On Thursday the Year 11 students were fortunate to attend Poetry Live! and hear, in person, some of the greatest living poets, including Carol-Ann Duffy (past) and Simon Armitage (present), Poet Laureates for Great Britain.
Students were given the opportunity to question these poets about their ideas and their aspirations. As always, John Agard was the star of the show, demonstrating, through his performance poetry, that words are living experiences, full of vitality and fire.
