🎉 Idsall School Joins a Guinness World Record! 🎉

We are beyond thrilled to announce that Idsall School is now officially part of a Guinness World Record! 🎖️

Our Year 7 students joined forces with other schools on National Poetry Day (October 3rd, 2024) to create a collaborative poem, and this amazing effort has been officially recognised! 📜

This is a huge achievement, and we are incredibly proud to be a part of it. To celebrate, we’ve included a letter of thanks from the poet Laura Mucha, pictures of our students with their well-deserved medals (featuring the adorable Axolotl, Bob 🦎), and, of course, the poem itself for you to enjoy!

Congratulations to everyone involved – this is a moment to remember! 🌟
