Dartford Grammar School for Girls

Huge congratulations!

Shanaya 10H has had her undeniable talent for writing poetry recognised by the judges of the Canterbury Festival Schools’ Poetry competition who awarded her the £50 prize for Best Poet on Thursday 12th October.

Her poem A Mother, written on the theme of Refuge, was selected from over 400 entries across Kent and has been published in the 12-15 year old category of the anthology of all the shortlisted poems.

Poetry Club members and the whole school community are very proud of her success.
