The annual English Poetry Recital Competition was held in the months of
                June and July. It aimed to explore students’ talents and guide students to realise
                their potential. As literature analysis is no longer included in Malaysian major
                exams, the competition also encourages students to read and appreciate poetry as

                an extracurricular activity.


                        Participants were grouped into two categories: the Senior group and the
                Junior group. Three main prizes and two consolation prizes were given away to

                participants had to truly understand the emotions behind every line in their poetry.

                Evidently, the participants had talent in this skill as the competition was very
                intense.


                        In the end, after much consideration and discussion, the experienced judges

                agreed upon a list of winners. As many students unravelled hidden talents and
                creativity througout the journey, teachers and students look forward to the next
                English Poetry Recital Competition!
