Here’s one of the poems from the competition this year (Year 6):

SUPER SKATE

Rika Zarai 

Pour aller faire du skate, 

prends tes baskets 

et laisse-toi glisser, laisse-toi glisser. 

Sur la planche à roulettes, 

Rien ne t'arrête, 

et c'est ta liberté, c'est ta liberté. 

Sur un pied, sur la main 

À l'endroit, à l'envers 

Le free style te va bien 

C'est extra, c'est super !
