Te Kōputu a te whanga a Toi — The Whakatāne Library and Exhibition Centre's Spine Poetry Challenge

Richard Parfitt from Whakatāne District Council

For three age groups: 12 and under, 13–18 years, and 19 and over.

Create a wonderful poem by using the spines of library books or DVDs. Take a photo of it, write a separate note with the words in case the photo is difficult to see, and email to library@whakatane.govt.nz. Remember to include your name, age, and contact details.

All poets receive a bar of chocolate, plus there will be great prizes in all age groups. The event concludes on Thursday, 23 February, with a prize giving event from 5:30 pm. Light refreshments will be available.
