The Poetry Project
The Poetry Project is a programme for younger students, particularly primary and intermediate schools but also some secondary classes, which provides an introduction to creative writing. In this programme, poets work with classes or a group of students in the school environment. Students are encouraged to write about a specific theme, such as Matariki or Our Place, and to share the work with others.
