Talented Poets of St Pat's
Writing can be such a cathartic way to process our emotions and the world around us, something that has never been more important than in 2021. Here at St Patrick’s, we are very lucky to have a number of talented writers who have entered various competitions throughout the year.
Our most recent success stories come from the Fisher’s Ghost Writing Competition in which Lyna L from Year 10 was awarded Highly Commended for her poem ‘Before I Fall’. A deep poem exploring the intense emotions one can feel in this challenging world. We also had our very own Ms Marguerite Pulham (English Teacher) win the adult category for her thought-provoking poem entitled ‘Palimpsest’. It explores the changing landscape of our local area and the sacred land on which we live. A huge congratulations to both of these gifted poets!
