Poetry Workshops

Find the words and make them thunder!
We offer Poetry Workshops to girls in year 9 at secondary school. Our workshops are a space for girls to own their story, their way. Over 6 weeks the girls learn how poetry works, and how it can be used to connect with themselves and others. We explore poetry and feelings, poetry clichés and phrases and getting comfortable with performance and confidence.
Our Poetry Workshops include:

Introduction to Poetry:

Poetry Clichés and Phrases:

Getting Comfortable with Performing:

To encourage the girls to speak out loud and own how they feel about it, is powerful.

Poetry and Feelings:

Physicality of Feelings:

Putting It All Together!
