We are getting ready to go on holiday ! Junkanoo is celebrated in the Bahamas and Jamaica, just after Christmas. It’s a party time because everyone is on holiday. Here are some photos of Room 5 and ECE Red students practising the song.
We’ve got a bell, we’ve got a drum
Junkanoo has begun 
Feel that goom-bay beat, giving life to your dancing feet
Ev’rybody’s on holiday
We’ll dance the night away
Now you know it’s Junkanoo
Come on, let’s go!
See the bright star in the sky, Time to sing-a-Noel
Angels chanting from on high
Time to sing-a-Noel
Now, see the bright star in the sky
Time to sing-a-Noel
Angels chanting from on high
Time to sing-a-Noel
Now sing a- Noel, Time to sing-a-Noel, Sing-a-Noel, Time to sing-a-Noel
The next Community Song will be massive! We will be taking part in a nationwide community singing event called Music: Count Us In. The song, Gold, was written by students who won a songwriting contest. They worked with John Foreman and Marcia Hines to create the song in just one day. Click here for the animation and here for the lyrics.
Now is your chance to show your family and friends the notes you have been learning!
