Together Sing
Together Sing is a culminating week-long event during Mental Health Week, in which schools and community groups across Australia and around the world sing a specifically composed song. Together Sing raises awareness of the value of singing together and the culminating events involve children singing a song together, experiencing these positive benefits.
Students at Yeronga SSS have discussed the importance of the role that group singing plays and the cognitive, social and emotional benefits of not only singing together but also of music education in their classroom music lessons during term 3 music lessons.
The Junior Choir has excitedly been leading this initiative at Yeronga SS and have been encouraging other students to be a part of the 150 000 singers that participate annually with groups from every state in Australia and also some overseas.
A Big shout out to both the Junior choir and the senior school students at assembly this morning who sang their hearts out and had a great time doing so. I look forward to another great sing at the junior assembly next week.
