Over the past year, teachers at Willowbank have been developing the Oracy skills (speaking) of the children through Voice21. As part of the project, the Oracy drive team implemented a poetry week focusing solely on the Oracy Framework. The Oracy Framework promotes the physical, linguistic, cognitive and social and emotional strands of speaking. Voice 21 were blown away with our project and have used Willowbank as 'spotlight school' to show other schools on the Oracy journey how to successfully implement, promote and value the power of talk.
