- What teachers say
Engaging. Imaginative. Let’s go on an musical adventure.
Ladybirds, butterflies, colourful flowers…and a good bit of elbow grease. We’ve packed the garden full of songs and handy teaching videos to help young voices bloom.
If you’re keen to get growing and want to be first to dig in, email us at schools@theglasshouseicm.org and we’ll add you to our education mailing list. Our Mini Sings always sell out, so don’t miss out!
How it works
Use the resources to learn the songs in school throughout the summer term, then join hundreds of other children at The Glasshouse for a professionally staged singing event with a live band. With no audience to perform to, everyone can relax, sing together and enjoy the magic of making music.
