Aspiring Poet
Congratulations to Sarah Joyce on her recent success in the Irish Christmas Tree Growers Poetry Competition. Sarah won first prize in the Connacht region with her wonderful poem ‘The Christmas Tree’. Sarah won a Christmas tree for our school and also a Christmas tree for herself. As a regional winner she also won a cash prize of fifty Euro. We are all so proud of Sarah and her wonderful achievement. Below is Sarah’s winning poem:
The Christmas Tree
The Christmas tree
was all alone,
He sat in the forest
On his own!
He waited and waited
Until the day,
A family came
And took him away.
They put him in the living room,
For everyone to see,
He was so beautiful
The little Christmas tree.
