Over the half-term we have received some excellent natural art inspired by the work of Andy Goldsworthy, along with some Banksy inspired street art and some coronavirus-defeating heroic poetry!

I Remember, I Remember
I remember, I remember,
The first time I played my little violin,
I remember, I remember,
The day I learned to ride my purple, big bike,
I remember, I remember,
The first house I lived in,
I remember, I remember,
When I had a snowball fight with my grandparents,
I remember, I remember
When my dad saved us from the charging cow,
I remember, I remember,
The first time I saw my noisy parrots on a windy Christmas morning,
I remember, I remember,
The first day at school when I met my fantastic new friends,
I remember, I remember,
My first brown and soft teddy bear called Oshi,
I remember, I remember,
My wonderful grandma cuddling me on a hot summer day,

When the Flood Waters Come
When the flood waters come,
When the rain falls down,
When people and animals run,
Be careful or you could drown,
I will calm the flow,
I will make the rain stop,
I will hope to show
That we have come out on top.

When the Coronavirus Hit
When the coronavirus hit
When lockdown started
When schools are closed
When you no longer see your friends
When home schooling started
When holidays are stopped
When each day is the same
When life changed due to this pandemic,
The air is less polluted
You start to get creative
The poetry club started
We will see the schools re-opening
We will see our friends again
The holidays will happen once again
When you get the best surprises
Life will be a new normal

When the Volcano Becomes Hot
When the volcano becomes hot,
And lava pours down,
And the sky turns dark,
Don’t worry…
Don’t run and hide…
I will stop the lava,
Bring back the sun,
And everything will go back to normal.

In the Wild
When the lions start roaring angrily,
When the hyenas start to pounce,
When the winds are howling loudly,
When the trees are swaying fast,
I will calm the lions down,
I will push the clouds away,
I will bring rainbows onto the sky,
And the wild will be quiet again.
