More Poems!
Nits
Like devils with six egs
Sucking up my blood
Crawling through my hair
Digging there fangs into my scalp
Nasty little itchy things biting at my scalp
Making me itch all day
The comb will stop them
They can’t escape
by Louis Y4
I’m soon 61
61, 61, 61, I’m soon 61
Just soon I’m 61
But I’m now 6+1=7
So just 54 brthdays to go
by Dylan Y3
Going to School
I like to go to school all week
It can be a real good treat
You learn and play and do PPA
You can have a real good day.
English is what I like best
You can read and write and do spelling tests
But poems are what I like best
By Trinity
John Hegley visits Chorlton Park
Poet John Hegley visited Chorlton Park recently to perform to children and parents. While here, a group of Year 6 children grabbed the opportunity to interview him about his poetry. Thanks to Sarah, Myles and Anna for their great questions. Afterwards, John commented that it was one of the best children’s interviews he’d done.

Reading at Chorlton Park
We have made reading a special focus this year. We are putting together a programme of events and information designed to fire up all our children’s interest in books.
Staff, governors, the PTA and parents are working together to present visits from poets, writers and illustrators; story selling sessions; workshops; competitions; blogs and a readathon.
