Edinburgh Book Festival

Pupils from S1 and S2 visited the Edinburgh International Book Festival today to see one of Scotland’s leading hip-hop bands, Stanley Odd.

As well as hearing ‘front man’ Dave Hook talk about how he uses poetic technique and structure in his lyrics, pupils also enjoyed hearing the band play some of their tracks.

Great inspiration for our Poetry Slam workshops next month…
