--- title: "Poetry!" url: "https://st-matthewscofe.lancs.sch.uk/news/2025-09-19-poetry" school: "St Matthew's Church of England Primary Academy and Nursery" --- # Poetry! ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-matthew-s-cofe-primary/images/news/Logo-WEBSITE_small(2).png) 19 September 2025 Earlier this week, we watched Michael Rosen, the internatioanlly famous author and poet, perform some of his poems at Castle View Primary Academy, another of the Cidari family of schools. As a result of watching him, some of our fabulous Y6 pupils found one of his anthologies and came to see Mr Mackley, the Headteacher, to perform them. We hope you enjoy their readings as much as we do!
