Home/School - Stay Connected

Write poems and stay connected in your community.

Summary

We would like you to write a poem to a friend, relative or neighbour who you're unable to see in person at the moment. You could do this on your own or as a family. Your poem should aim to make them smile and brighten their day.

Don't forget to share your poem with us via Twitter @PLCommunities using the #WeAreOneTeam and #PLPrimaryStars or by emailing them in to PLPrimaryStars@premierleague.com for a chance to be our Star of the Week.

This is part of our series of weekly challenges for 2021.

Children will:

  • review different types of poetry
  • develop their writing skills
  • understand the importance of community.
