"A Dark, Dark Day for Stanley" - South Stanley Junior School
This poem was created by Kalven, Svyat, Jamie, Jake and Jack, Year 6 pupils from South Stanley Junior School as part of our 'Celebrating Stanley' project. This poem gives voice to a miner trapped in the aftermath of the West Stanley Pit Disaster, capturing the fear and isolation of waiting in darkness while unsure whether rescue will come. It ultimately serves as a tribute to the 168 men who died that day and a vow to live on in their memory.
