Polygon School have been working with the Mayflower 400 programme and SCC on different projects
Giving Thanks is a campaign to create digital memories that
bring the people of Southampton together in a shared celebration of the city
and its communities. It is being delivered as part of the ongoing city-wide
Mayflower 400 programme and is funded by the Barker-Mill Foundation.
As part of their art learning the boys were invited to contribute towards the whole school poem, in respect of Covid, lockdown and their personal thoughts and feelings. Here is the poem created by their responses. Below is the link to the Celebration Facebook page
GIVING THANKS
POLYGON SCHOOL
POEM
I am thankful for…
Family and friends being so supportive during the stressful
pandemic
People being nicer in person
The well-being of my loved ones during the pandemic
So much that there isn’t enough room on this paper
My leisurewear
Being healthy
Having my parents and my sister
The amazing world of screens
Teams
Animals
Life
I am missing…
Hugs
Hugs and the apple store
Socialising with friends
Holidays
Pets
School
Sunlight
I am looking forward to…
Better days ahead
Turning the page on this chapter
School again, every bit of it is cool and the practices are
even better
Riding my bike
I am noticing…
The galaxy expanding
I am a small speckle of paint on this broad canvas called
life
