Description
from our hands to yours is a selection of poems from five years of poetry workshops with students in English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) classes at Mana College in Porirua.
These moving, charming, funny poems were written by students from Samoa, Syria, Fiji, Vietnam, Tonga, Tokelau, Philippines, Myanmar, and Colombia. Some are English beginners; others are more fluent.
They write about subjects, from grandparents, to wishes, to how they seem to other people. Their poems provide an illuminating glimpse into the immigrant experience as seen through teen eyes and are a celebration of many different cultures and of Aotearoa New Zealand itself.
