Vector talk Sustainability...

Literacy Festival

Poetry Slam!

In our first ever Room 3 poetry slam Rishi took out the title (he also went on to win the Kea poetry slam). We had an awesome morning picked songs to pump ourselves up, making prizes for respectful audience members and then performing (or should I say slamming) our poems.
