*** National Poetry Day 2026 ***

To celebrate National Poetry Day 2026, pupils across Sacred Heart P.S. explored this year's theme, "Wonder."

Children engaged in a range of creative poetry activities designed to spark imagination and encourage self-expression.

Pupils in P4/P5 created thoughtful and imaginative acrostic poems, using the theme of wonder to inspire their writing. In P5/P6, children took part in enjoyable Open Mic Sessions, confidently sharing their poems with classmates and celebrating the power of spoken word. Meanwhile, our P7 pupils used J2Create to publish and present their poetry digitally, combining creativity with technology to produce impressive pieces of work.

The day was a wonderful celebration of language, creativity and imagination, with pupils embracing the opportunity to explore what inspires awe and curiosity in the world around them.
