Students contribute to World Class Schools Symposium
Well done to two very talented students whose work has been selected for inclusion in the World Class Schools Quality Mark (WCSQM) Virtual Symposium, which will be held on 8th July 2020. Further to the recent news story about Year 13 Student Isla Leach, whose 30 second music composition is featured on the BBC Proms website, Isla's composition will also be included in the symposium. A poem written by Year 9 student Charlotte Hobbs has also been selected for inclusion at this prestigious symposium. Both students were approached for inclusion at the symposium as a result of their work being spotted on the 91ÖÆƬ³§ website and via the 91ÖÆƬ³§ English faculty twitter feed
Below is Charlotte's poem 'My Blessing Poem'.
My Blessing poem
I saw him sitting there all cold in despair
He lay on a crushed cardboard box
Perched there like a lost baby fox
People rushed past as it began to rain
If only they could see his sorrow and pain
I watched him pray and hope for a chance
But all they did was pass with a glance
I saw him shiver if only he thought
I got up from the bench to do what was taught
I was gone awhile but approached with a smile
I looked as his head began to raise upright
He glared at me with all his might
He couldn’t believe that this was real
As I placed down his very first meal
He said his praise through some amaze
Someday I thought
The world will be okay
