As part of the school’s National Poetry Day celebrations, the acclaimed poet, Mary Jean Chan, came to give a reading to the school’s Literary Society. We were also joined by students from the St Helen’s Literary Society, as we were treated to a reading from the poet’s Costa Poetry Prize winning debut collection, Flèche. After the reading, the poet held a Q&A session, covering topics such as Hong Kong heritage, writing process as well as advice for budding poets. It was a wonderful event to get our National Poetry Day celebrations underway.
