Young Writers – Empowered Poetry Competition

Empowered invites you to write a poem about something you truly care about - from personal passions to global issues, this is your space to speak up and stand out.

Whether it’s exploring identity, hobbies, current affairs, or something uniquely your own, every student can use poetry to find and share their voice. This competition celebrates individuality, creativity, and confidence.

Any style. Any subject. Your voice.
Entries can take any form - from haikus and acrostics to odes, rhymes or free verse. You can share a memory, explore a dilemma, offer advice, or simply write about something they adore.

What will inspire you to speak up?
Completed word entry forms should be emailed to Miss Kinsella by the deadline.

Extended Closing Date: Friday 6th June 2025
