Classical Poetry at Swavesey Primary School
During September, the whole school has been having fun exploring poetry. Our Reception classes recited and performed a poem called Choppety Chop, whilst children from Years 1 to 6 developed their knowledge of Classical Poetry. Years 1 and 2 learnt the poem, The Owl and the Pussy Cat, and Years 3 and 4, The Jumblies, both written by the poet Edward Lear. Years 5 and 6 investigated the complex but fun vocabulary in Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll.
