Reading: Oracy (Railway Carriage)

Wednesday 04 March 2026

In reading this week, the children are learning about, and performing, the poem ‘Railway Carriage’ by Robert Louis Stevenson written in 1885.

We recapped our oracy targets from this year and identified which ones would be relevant when performing a poem aloud to peers.

Help at home: Can your child learn this poem off by heart?
