Adventures in Poetry at St Kentigern Girls’ School

Recently, I visited St Kentigern Girls’ School with fellow poet, Gus Simonovic. Gus and I had a wonderful time working with the junior school students and their teachers. Between breaks in the rain, we dashed outside for several poetry walks. While adventuring, the students drew on their senses to come up with original, striking, and imaginative observations. Gus and I scribbled at high speed, gathering their thoughts and poetic comparisons. Back in the classroom, the students, teachers, Gus, and I all worked as one giant poetic brain to turn our adventures into class poems. Gus and I were blown away by the girls’ enthusiasm and love of language.

You’re going to enjoy reading their work!
