Favourite part of today’s #InclusiveLibraries was listening to @connor_allen92 perform his poetry live, poetry is always so much better when you can hear it out loud, particularly as a home grown Newport girl getting to hear it in a familiar accent, which is rare 🥰 #poetry #poet

As the National Year of Reading begins, today highlighted the vital role of schools and libraries in supporting children to see themselves in books. Huge thanks @ksandsoconnor @rapclassroom @connor_allen92 @CornerstoneCdf Mount Stuart Primary and exhibitors #InclusiveLibraries

"Harry Potter got his letter from Hogwarts, I’m still searching for my letter. This kid just wanted to fit in, just wanted to belong The way Harry did once he got that letter." 👏 A powerful performance from award winning poet @connor_allen92 at today's #InclusiveLibraries

@connor_allen92 Great to have you Connor!🤩

This year @hayfestival was super special for me as I had hundreds of young people with their torches in the air like stars in the sky as I performed my poem SUPERNOVA for my childhood friend who is no longer here An absolute privilege and a highlight I’ll never forget ❤️💫

What an absolute joy it was to meet over 500 young people at @hayfestival Showing them the power of stories, helping them understand they are all #Miracles 🚪with unlimited potential never gets old Thank you Hay and love to every person that supports and makes it possible ❤️

📚Taith i Ŵyl y Gelli - Hay Festival Trip📚 What a treat our pupils had to end their half term today! They loved everything that the Hay Festival had on offer, including some superb sessions with Connor Allen, former Children's Laureate, and award winning author Liz Hyder.

Diolch to @connor_allen92 for his engaging workshop with Year 6 this week. He used his Blank Canvas poem to inspire the children to write their own poetry. @sapsyear6
