Below is a link to the official website where it tells you lots of information about the day and ways that you can get involved.
The theme this year is COUNTING. I wonder how many of you could write a short poem linking to the theme?
On the same link, it shows you lots of examples of poems. You might even want to practice one of them at home. Would you have the courage to perform the poem to your crew?
Send photographs, videos or bring in your poems – We can’t wait to see them!
