Wonderful World

From Year 6’s Amazing Utopia of Poems

Written by the children in Year 6 at Bruche Primary Academy School in Warrington and Flick Goodman from Story Stitchers.

Flick was invited to spend the day with the class creating poems that shared with the world who the children are and what matters to them. The children then created a background for their poem to be put into their own poetry book.

From pugs to pandas, best friends to football, and homes to hobbies, each poem is an insight into what mattered to each child on that day. The Children showed great resilience and made many brave, creative decisions throughout the day.
