Open Mic

Open mic for Earth Day provides opportunity for students to reflect

A number of students and teachers participated in an Open Mic event in the library on Wednesday lunchtime last week, to mark Earth Day. The theme – Nature – provided those present with the opportunity to ponder the future of our planet, and reflect on what we can all do to help preserve it.

The students selected extracts from books, read poetry and even composed their own for the occasion. Their assurance in front of the microphone and their ability to convey the key messages from the pieces they read from, was first class.

Special thanks to our wonderful librarian for organising and MC’ing the event and to the students that gave up their lunchtime – including Ryan and Sammy on “Sound” – to help facilitate the occasion.

Earth Day – Wednesday 22 April if you didn’t know – will be celebrated in school next week in an Open Mic lunchtime event on the day itself.

Our theme is Nature – theirs is Our Power, Our Planet fyi – students are invited to register in advance at the library should they wish to read from a book or poem of their own choosing.

All participants will receive a credit.

The deadline to register is Monday 20 April. We hope to see you there!

Oathall students celebrated World Book Day, and the National Year of Reading, at lunchtime events all week in the library.

On World Book Day itself, a number of students volunteered to participate in an inspiring Open Mic session in front of a sizeable audience.

We heard from students about the books and authors they love, some read extracts, others shared poems they’d composed themselves.

We collected together a few excerpts of some of the students that took part in the compilation video below – which you can also watch on our recently launched YouTube channel.
