WordSlam IV - School Outreach Programme Phase 2


The second phase of the School Outreach Programme, a school poetry workshop kick-off today on the Island. The workshop started at about 1p.m at Ireti Grammar School, Ikoyi, today, Nov 23rd, 2009 and will end on the Nov 25th, 2009.

The first phase which held last week at the Bola Ige Millennium School in Tolu School Complex, Ajegunle was indeed interesting as Ade Bantu took the students through the usage of rhyme and rhythm in poetry and also the ethics of poetry performance. Dagga Tolar - the Chairman of the Association of Nigerian Authors, Lagos Chapter and the popular AJ poet, was the host and coordinator of the wordshop.



As we start the Island phase of the workshop today, we hope to have an interesting, educating and interacting sections with the Ireti Grammar School Students for the rest of the days as we did had with the Ajegunle students.

Be rest assured that Nov 28th is going to be the bomb as Azadus has shown his interest in joining the main act, Ade Bantu, during the Concert segment of the day.
