And just to show you and the people who missed it that poetry is always alive you can watch the following videos of both poems.

The school day was a great success. Lots of people took part in the different activities and we had a great time. I was very happy to see many people there from NI1F and NI1G. Thank you everyone. I am specially grateful to Emy, Mª Cruz and Tati and Jose who did so well reading poems. And for those of you who didn't turn up you can see what you missed below.
