Taking Refuge In Poetry

18th October 23

To celebrate National Poetry Day in Upper School, students were challenged to write a poem on the subject of ‘Refuge’. There were many very moving entries which gave the English Department the headache of trying to pick the winners.

Congratulations to everyone who was brave enough to share their work but particularly to the following winners.
