Last week, we were treated to a special peformance by The New Jersey Intergenerational Orchestra Outreach Ensemble! The NJIO is a community orchestra whose mission is to open the world of orchestral music to diverse audiences and to musicians of all ages and varied skill levels.

NJIO believes that music performances are beneficial to everyone and endeavors to serve the community by presenting both affordable-admission and free orchestral concerts, outreach performances and special events throughout New Jersey.

We’re so grateful for the joy and inspiration the NJIO brought to WAE!

This spring, the Poetry Class has been exploring haiku - a traditional form of Japanese poetry consisting of three lines that capture nature, fleeting moments and vivid imagery.

Here are a few of the free form haiku poems they wrote!

Afternoon rain
Cold
The dove’s heart
— The Tuesday Morning Poets

The phone
Is ringing
I am in love
— The Tuesday Morning Poets

I see a barbeque grill
It makes hot dogs
Makes me hungry.
— Gigi

I see my heart
It pounds
For love
— Jack

I see people
They’re dancing
Makes me happy laugh
— Alicia
