Heritage Poems 75 - Guernsey schools' poetry competition
This year, 2020, celebrates 75 years of liberation from the Occupation of the Nazis during World War two on the Island of Guernsey. A poetry competition was held asking Guernsey school students to write poems about the experience during Occupation and the joy of Liberation after 5 years (World War 2). Students from schools across the island talked to their grandparents and learnt about how it affected family members. They submitted poems which were judged by local sixth form students studying English. Online voting was used to identify an overall winner from the nine finalists. Students also had the opportunity to read out their poems on Radio Guernsey in the JKT show.
