Able Writers' Workshop

Ten students from Glenthorne visited Worcester Park Library on Friday, 17th October to meet performance poet Neal Zetter for an Able Writers' Workshop. Using comedy and other unique methods, Neal taught the students effective ways to construct poems and perform them in front of an audience.

The theme for the workshop was Black History Month, students were asked to choose someone that inspired them, brainstorm ideas and then write their poem. They also worked together to edit and polish their work.

At the end of the day, three students from Glenthorne had the chance to perform their poems in front of students from the three other schools that attended the workshop. All of the students did great work, their poems will be added to the newsletter soon. More photos of the event can be seen below.
