Streetz Ahead are on the Haringey Youth Festival (HYF) board with Collage Arts, Jacksons Lane and Haringey Shed. We have spent the year planning this years ‘HYF’, which due to COVID was delivered via zoom on Friday 30th October 2020.
The day consisted of Spoken Word, Physical Theatre and Body Percussion workshops.
Here are some of Streetz Ahead’s work from the Spoken Word session. The children had to create a piece entitled ‘The world is…..’:
The World Is…
The world is …..
Something that opens up, home sweet home.
The world is….
Everything that happened and then went by.
The world is ….
A blooming start of love.
The world is ….
Secrets hidden beneath your mind
By Kyra aged 10
The world is changing and gets reborn in spring
The world is helping my mum to juggle
The world is full of words which are untrue
The world is a large collection of music
By LJ aged 8
The world is full of darkness and can be made clear
The world is able to leave one place for another place
The world is able to see what is inside all of us.
The world is a collection of words & stories.
The world is full of different people all around us.
By Lexie aged 6
The world is a snip instead of a rip
The world is a breath of fun
The world surrounds us until we fall
The world is glorious and regal
The world is a big place we dream about
The world is a burst of anger
The world is a start of something
By Shamira aged 10
