As part of National Poetry Day this year, the boys have taken part in a project called #haiflu. They have been writing Haikus, which are short poems of five, seven and three syllable lines on the topic of Covid and Lockdown. Here are some fantastic contributions from the boys:
Watch football at home
Nothing in the stadium
Aguero scores goals
Logging on to Teams
Every single morning time
Again and again
You may be lonely
There is hope for everyone
You are not alone
Coronavirus
Caused a big epidemic
Baking bananas
Shells, bullets and blood
Replaced by masks , sponges, soap
A war with no foe
Going on a run
Exercising in the gym
I can run a mile
Catching up on Zoom
Going for a walk outside
Missing ‘normal’ life
Start learning to bake
Finally making sourdough
Oops! Ran out of flour
Very short commute
Walking the dog for fresh air
Calming sun filled woods
Morning cake baking
Hour long walks with bright blue skies
Home for skype and scones
