Waterbury student wins poetry contest

For the second year in a row, Tzvi Bernstein of Waterbury has won first place the Silas Bronson Library Poetry Contest. Now in its 42nd year, the contest is open to all children in grades 1 through 8 who either live in Waterbury or attend school there.

A 7th-grader at Waterbury’s Yeshiva K’tana, Tzvi wrote his poem on the contest’s assigned topic for 7th-graders, “If I was a Superhero.” He was presented with his award, as well as a book, in a ceremony recently at the library. The young man also took home a first-place award in last year’s contest for his poem on the topic of “Finding Treasures.”
