Today, Year 5 had the exciting opportunity to attend the Darwen Literature Festival at Darwen Library. As part of the event, they took part in an inspiring author session led by the brilliant poet and performer Rappaman. The children were captivated by his energetic performance and powerful poetry, which explored themes like identity, creativity and resilience. They listened, laughed and even joined in with some of the rhythmic wordplay, leaving the session buzzing with ideas and inspiration. It was a fantastic celebration of language and the joy of reading and writing. A big thank you to the festival organisers and Rappaman for such a memorable experience!
