Well done Rose! Thanks to the @PentrepoethPrim council pupils, @PPSMrsSymes , Mr T and John Griffiths for their enthusiastic support. A very enjoyable event from @NewportCouncil for national children's day. Well done to all the young people who performed. 👏
Rose reads her beautiful poem “The Magic Box” to a packed audience of officials, head teachers, teachers and many other educationalists. What a wonderful, creative poem about health and happiness. So proud of her! An amazing performance. @PentrepoethPrim
