Kimba's Visit Inspires Creativity
Amery Library hosted an exciting author visit in March – Kimba Bush - a performance poet and rapper. Kimba uses the power of words to paint pictures that capture hope, build confidence, and inspire creativity. Our students in Year 7 and 8 were thoroughly impressed by Kimba’s rapping performance, during which he wowed everyone, including the staff, with his ability to weave magic with verse.
Kimba then delivered a series of bespoke poetry workshops to a select number of Year 7, 8 and 9 students. Here, he asked the students to think of things they valued, such as family, friends, pets, books, films, etc. With Kimba’s guidance, and his freestyle rapping, students produced their own verse, empowered by Kimba’s example.
