GETTING STARTED

A primary school choir journey in ten songs.

This is a proposed teaching sequence, not a tested curriculum or finished school licence.

  1. 01
    Find your voice

    Begin with belonging and shared singing: This Is Our Place, We Belong Here and We Make the Light.

  2. 02
    Grow together

    Explore courage, friendship and progress through I Can Be Brave, With You Beside Me and Still We Rise.

  3. 03
    Rise and celebrate

    Build to a shared performance with Stand Together, We’re Moving Higher, Bigger Than We Know and Look At Us Now.

Suggested routine: warm up comfortably → listen → teach the chorus → practise verses → reflect → perform. Adapt every activity to your pupils’ ages and needs. No musical notation or safeguarding guidance is included in this preview.
