Last week the class showed how talented they were by writing some beautiful haikus.
A haiku is a type of Japanese poem that is only three lines long but aims to paint a photograph in words.
Haikus traditionally have a set number of syllables per line; 5 in the first line, 7 in the second and 5 in the third.
After looking at a number of haikus and discussing them, it was time for students to unleash their creativity and write their own.
Here are some of the best:
Don’t wanna wake up
Please bond blankets and body
Morning in winter
Caught the last wave
in the last light of the day
breathe the air away
Morning in winter
It is very cold and dark
You can see white snow.
Life in the city
It’s always busy, busy
no one knows no one.
Watching the sunrises
Sitting on a cold rock, and
birds fly from the trees
