Poetry term: Banjo Paterson


Term 4 at the kids' school is always the term where everyone has to learn a poem and say it in front of their class....and then, if they're good enough, in front of their year group.

This year we're having a Banjo Paterson-fest. Liam is learning Clancy of the Overflow, and Aidan is learning The Geebung Polo Club.

We are currently in the painful phase of learning the poems off by heart. Once we get through that, it will be fun getting the expression and intonation patterns happening.
