Our Autumn Song
Our Autumn Song captures the mood of a typical English autumn from the perspective of a schoolchild. Summer’s over, and it’s back to school. The weather’s colder, days are shorter and the leaves on the trees are turning brown and yellow and falling to the ground. Your class will identify strongly with the themes in this action song.
