Juniper have had another visit from Mrs Weatherhead this week. We’ve had a fantastic time exploring different types of poems. We’ve written poems of our own about Heywood and its surrounding areas and produced some fantastic artwork. Eventually, we’ll be publishing a book of these poems – watch this space!
