Never Such Innocence

This week, we welcomed Clive Sanders from Never Such Innocence to deliver poetry workshops to our Year 5 and 6 children. The charity began as a First World War commemoration project and has included young people from over 130 countries. Our UKS2 children produced some powerful poems on the theme of conflict, which will now be entered into the Never Such Innocence poetry competition!
