National Poetry Recitation Competition (English) 2023

Poetry Festival Singapore (PFS) presents the inaugural National Poetry Recitation Competition (NPRC) in 2023! Celebrating poetry in all four national languages, this multilingual competition aims to promote the appreciation of poetry in the classroom and community by encouraging everyone in Singapore to learn poems by heart. Finalists will be invited to recite their selected poems in person during the finals on 29 and 30 July 2022 at the National Library and the Arts House.
