Wellington City is launching a poetry journal for kids — Tūhono

Reporter Community News

Wellington City Libraries is launching a poetry journal for kids and teens — Tūhono.
Throughout the month of November, they will be accepting submissions of poetry from writers aged 5 – 18 in Wellington City. The theme for the poems is ‘Tūhono | Connection’ and may be written in English or te reo Māori.
Unlike other poetry journals, work accepted in Tūhono is not a competition — as long as the rules are followed, every piece of work that gets submitted will be published and available to borrow from the library in December 2020.
Tūhono itself — the collection of poetry from young people all over Wellington — will be published as an eBook on OverDrive, so that everyone with a library card can borrow it.
