Singing at Home

As I’m sure you have realised over the last few days, music is one of the ways in which people are coming together in solidarity as it makes us all feel good.  With this in mind, here are some of the songs the children are used to singing in school for you to sing at home with your children (or to gain yourselves a few precious minutes of respite).  Apologies that some of them are not quite our usual version, as far as possible we’ve gone for the ones which have lyrics too, being mindful of copyright.

 

Happy singing!
