"I really enjoy it because you get to visit all the places you hear about on forecast. It's very funny at times and you learn a lot of useful ... or useless? ... facts as well!".

Song School was a song writing workshop, where we wrote and recorded our own songs. Check out the movie, filmed by Ms. Ivers, of a practice session. The two teachers, Dave and Dave from Song School were very helpful with producing our songs and editing them on the computer. We are all very proud of the songs we wrote and will be getting a CD with the songs on them.
