We have some talented writers at HLP. So impressed by this student’s poems written in today’s @FirstStory session with @ceciliaknapp, inspired by the work of @kerdonk 📚 #ThisIsAP

[Haringey Learning Partnership @HaringeyLP]

Our @FirstStory writer-in-residence @ceciliaknapp introduced us to the brilliant poetry of @kerdonk today. Inspired by her poems ‘Ten’ & ‘Thirty’ we wrote our own incredible pieces about our childhoods, adolescence & our imagined future selves.📚 #ThisIsAP
