VIP Reading Group
On Monday 25th January, 8VK gave a poetry presentation to the VIP Reading Group at Newbury Library.
The group meets once a month to discuss a book they have all read, although as they all have a degree of visual impairment, they actually listen to a recording.
The poems chosen each told a story and ranged from Charles Causley's 'Ballad of the Breadman' and 'Timothy Winters' to Alan Brownjohn's 'We are going to see the rabbit'.
These were warmly received and 8VK then chatted informally to members of the group before enjoying some refreshments. It was felt to be a great improvement on sitting in a classroom!
