Norwich School pupils studying Modern Foreign Languages recently had the opportunity to write and enter a poem into the ‘Mother Tongue Other Tongue’ poetry competition.
This Laureate Education Project is a multilingual poetry competition that celebrates cultural diversity and the many languages spoken in schools in the UK.
The competition requires pupils to submit a poem either in their Mother Tongue or in a language that they are learning at school.
Several of our pupils' poems have now been shortlisted and will now feature in the Mother Tongue Other Tongue anthology. A selection of pupil entries can be read by clicking the links below:
Grace Yeo, L5, Mandarin - 'Panpan'
Georgia Hodgson, L5, Spanish - 'Cambio Climático'
Kyriel Fynn, U4, French - 'Traducteur'
Alvaro Smoolenaars Garcia, L5 - 'La Guerra'
Cleo Gregory, L5, Italian - 'Haiku del Sole'
