The Library had the pleasure of hosting a guest visit from local poet Joanne Arnott. The English 12 teachers organized this event through Poetry In Voice, a national recitation contest our school has previously participated. Arnott read original poems, discussed her writing practice, and led the students in various writing exercises. View the pictures to get a feel for this exciting event!
