YOUNG poets from Parkway Middle School in Haverhill have again been proving their winning ways.

Three pupils from the school went along to the Aldeburgh Poetry Festival to read their poems and receive prizes from poet and story teller Gerald Benson at the Jubilee Hall.

Dexter Cork, Nicolle Skeggs-Terry and Emily Harman were chosen from thousands of entries by school children from all over Suffolk.

Three other Parkway pupils, Samantha Cornwell, Joanna Whitehorn and John Shardelow, also had their poems highly commended.

"We are very proud of them," said a spokesman for the school.
