Students in Year 8 at Fitzroy High School composed poems and explored activities from the Sea Things learning resource, the Red Room Education learning resource for the middle school that was being piloted in 2011. Teacher Briony O’Keeffe was a long time and much valued supporter of Red Room Education and this was the third time her students at Fitzroy High School had enjoyed the program. Students had visited the seaside at St. Kilda, composed kennings and worked on drafts of Martian poetry. They were sent a second hand book about the sea that they transformed into poems inspired by The Humument Project.
