OutLoud Slam: Heats

Hosted by acclaimed poet and educator Emilie Zoey Baker, OutLoud Slam is a vibrant celebration of young voices and original storytelling.

Think of it as the Eisteddfod of English class – a high-energy, heart-filled showcase where school teams perform three original poems, created individually or collaboratively, across two divisions: Years 7–9 and Years 10–12.

With special guest judges, surprise performances and fantastic prizes, OutLoud is one of the most anticipated youth poetry events of the year.
