Michael Rosen Poetry Slam - VC event





We were invited to take part in this Havering-wide competition, held during a multi-point video conference. The aim was to perform one of Michael Rosen's poems better than the poet himself - and he was the judge! A group of our Year 6 children performed their version of one of Michael's poems, as he watched via VC from Parklands Junior School. Michael also gave us a sneak peak of his new book of poetry and read us a one of his new poems about being attacked by a banana. Well done to the group who represented us - they were fantastic - and to Miss Denham who worked hard to get the group ready to perform. It was great fun to watch all the performances and we were also able to ask Michael some questions afterwards. Another great event via VC
