Arvon Course - Foyles Young Poets

Caroline has just come back from teaching a week-long Arvon course for the winners of the Foyles Young Poets of the Year Award. Her co-tutor was Lemn Sissay, a brilliant, inspiring man and poet. This course was particularly poignant, since Caroline herself won the competition was she was 13 years old, so to come full-circle and tutor the winners course is extremely heart-affirming. Also, the winners this year were something special. Really. Check out their winning poems on the Poetry Society Website.
