The Roots are still producing forth the Plants: Students display Love for the Poetry Workshop
 

On the 14th October 2015, Tontoma Poetry Session under Tontoma Book Club, (TBC).   We carried out our first workshop in Poetry, Project…..0001. A three day Creative Facilitation Workshop in Poetry with the Students of Meridian College Namasuba Zzana.

The aim of this workshop was to mainly interact with Literature Students, The Students Writers Club, and the Students that offer art. Introducing them to the literature outside the schools programme which very many are oblivious of, and think that literature is for purposes of passing exams. Many thought that literature is a matter of reading a book and force your way into the life of another person and Poetry in perspective, Students thoughts it is a matter of writing songs and rhyming words. The innocence in the eyes of these students  though was compelling. It tasked us to do something about it and allow the flowers to bloom in the field. This was our entry. I once bore this innocence. Tontoma bore this innocence not once or twice. We still bear this innocence and there is a way to go!
