On Friday last week, Primary held the final of our Spoken Poetry Competition. Class and year group finals happened during the week leading up to the final and on Friday the finalists from each year group performed to an audience of their peers, their parents and our judges; Mr Turner, Ms. Murphy, Mr Cannon and Ms. Croft. The finalists were judged on how well the student knew the poem, if they had good expression, if they had good body langauge, gave eye-contact and had actions, if they were articulate, had good stage presence and if they could project their voices. Finally they were judged on how entertaining their poems were.
In Years 1, 2 and 3 the winners were:
1st place - Zilia from 2 Blueberry
2nd place - Nik from 3 Marigold
3rd place - Eylul for 3 Saffron
In Years 4, 5 and 6 the winners were:
1st place - Filip from 6 Amber
2nd place - Zaki from 4 Plum
3rd place - Mira from 5 Aqua
A big well done to everyone who took part. We were very impressed with the range of poems and even had a few children who wrote their own!

Last week, Year 6 performed our wonderful musical production for the parents and younger children in school. It was a play called Troy Story - it was about the Greeks and Trojans who were at war and had lots of drama.
As the academic year draws to a close, our Early Years students marked the occasion in the most joyful way possible, with Splash Day, a much-loved BISB tradition that brings together sunshine, water play, and the simple delight of being a child.
