Singing helps us to learn!



This is an important fact. Singing is not just funny and entertaining. Singing is motivating and helps us to improve our pronunciation. That is why we kids from the third cycle have begun to sing. Once a week, on Fridays, we will give thirty minutes to this special activity.
