March 12, 2016

Poetry CompetitionWe have heard this week that the judges chose Jake’s poem ‘Bodkin Arrow’ as the overall
WINNER of the Agincourt 600 Poetry Competition in the primary category! This is an outstanding
achievement. As it was a national competition, the Young Poets Network received hundreds of
entries from young poets all across the UK, so Jake should feel incredibly proud of himself. It is
also thrilling that Roahn and George, were also selected by the judges as 2 of the 6 Commended primary poets, and will each receive special prizes! All three poems have now been published on the website and can be read at: www.youngpoetsnetwork.org.uk.
