Assembly Friday 28th Feb (Hannah's Class)

I will be giving out the lyric sheets tomorrow and if the children can start learning the song (chorus and 1 verse) from tomorrow on, that would be great! If you have any other questions, please let me know :) Hope to see you all there! Thanks a mill, Hannah
