A Christmas message from our Poet Laureate
Our Poet Laureate has written a poem to remind us of the kindness and love that we should show each other. He read them beautifully at the beginning of each performance to inspire children, staff, friends and family members to give love over the holiday season.
Give Love
Christmas
Not a day before, not a day after
Family emerging, putting differences aside
Everyone gathering in the warmth: loving and caring, sharing and giving
Spare a thought for those without family
Those without a home
Those falling through the deep, deadly gap – forgotten by society
But not all hope is lost
Some remember the true meaning of Christmas
The festive heart is pumping, giving those in need a hand
A heart is open; a hand is lent
Memories are created
As the time to prepare is upon us
Take time to stop
Give something that does not cost money
Reassure. Restore. Rejoice
Give Love
