Congratulations to the winners!

I'm pleased to announce the winners of our first ever Poetry Podcast Competition.
Thank you to our judge Daniel Howe, a local poet from Helensville. His website, where you can find some of his poetry, is called Point of View.

And the winners are....
Over-all winner ... Jamie Rugby
Younger group winner ... Sarsha. Walk to School.
Older group winner ... Brooke... Gold.

Congratulations! Jamie wins an MP3 player. Sarsha and Brooke both receive USB memory sticks.

Special mentions also to...
William. Motorbike
My Poppa. Jamie Wilson
Taryn - Sandy Relaxation
Trent. My motorbike.

This competition was run as one of the Libraries' activities for Montana Poetry day. Poetry shouldn’t stay on the page – it needs to be shared and read aloud. As Daniel says "Oral poetry is very natural and I encourage it. " So do we. Thank you to all those who shared their poems with us.
