The winner and runners up of the Poetry by Heart competition were announced on 26 November. 

In November, Year 7 and 8 participated in the English department's Poetry By Heart competition, where all students learn a poem word-for-word and then perform it to the class from memory.

It was a tough competition, with each student learning their chosen poems expertly, but there could only be one winner, and that is...

• 1st Place - Misha – The Three Little Pigs

With honourable mentions to those coming in 2nd and 3rd:

• 2nd Place – Mia  – The Three Little Pigs
• 3rd Place – Filippa  – Annabel Lee

Congratulations to Misha, Mia and Filippa, and to all the girls that participated. Learning a long poem off by heart is no easy feat!
