The children file Into the school hall
Take their place without delay
Well dressed,fresh faced,brightly shining
Voices raised in glad array
Anxious teachers,tense and wary
Pray nothing mars this joyful day
While high pitched voices show conviction
And sing out loud with perfect diction

Smiling faces beam delight
As successive notes take flight
While gestures made with perfect timing
Enhance the words, and suit the rhyming
Mums and grandads,dads and nans
All of them devoted fans
Determined not to miss the boat
And with a lump in every throat

Applause all round, the show is ended
Hugs for each and every one
Staff and children all commended
Each one a star that brightly shone
