What an unusual time<br />
it’s been for us all<br />
over <strong>the</strong> last six months!<br />
We’re very aware <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> impact that Coronavirus has had<br />
on singing in schools, and it’s been hard to see assemblies,<br />
musicals and concerts put on hold.<br />
The success <strong>of</strong> <strong>Out</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Ark</strong>’s @HOME <strong>of</strong>fering has demonstrated<br />
just how important singing has been as part <strong>of</strong> families’ lives during<br />
lockdown, and as children return to school in September, it is clear<br />
that music will be an essential tool in helping <strong>the</strong>m to settle<br />

As we move into <strong>the</strong> ‘Back to School’ phase,<br />
it’s apparent that every school will face different challenges<br />
while adapting to <strong>the</strong> new guidelines.<br />
With that in mind, we want to try to be as helpful as we<br />
possibly can, so we are exceptionally excited to introduce<br />
a whole new way to access our songs. We believe<br />
this will empower you to use songs in your teaching<br />
and school routines like never before, and support<br />
you in your recovery curriculum.<br />
