Songwriting in 5th Class

The children in Fifth Class have been busy practicing songwriting in their groups. Each group composed a song and added some music to accompany it.
After a lot of work, the results are fantastic. Some very talented musicians and some very catchy compositions!

Thank you to Mr O’Neill for all his lessons in songwriting and music with 5th Class recently. Our 5th Class really enjoyed them.
