Watch the films and consider the questions underneath.

You do not have to put an email address or website on the comments’ field. Leave this blank. Just enter your first name and school.

Please respond to the questions, share some creative responses or your thoughts in the box underneath the film.

We look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Congratulations to Violet from Yerbury school on becoming the Futurezone poet laureate for 2020 with this wonderful poem.

An echoing silence.
The infamous din is haunting.
Not the loss, but that one
-incessant-

as that beep
-incessant-
is heard,
the reality is no longer bent
it is reflected
in to the eyes all at once
a moment of realisation.
Beep.

Open eyes and fleeting smiles
Maybe there’s just a little-
