    IN THE AUTUMN

    In the Autumn leaves start falling,

    It’s not long ‘til Winter’s calling.

    Make the most of these sunny days and…

    Hope those rain clouds stay away!

    St George's Day is celebrated in England on 23 April, in honour of St George, the patron saint of England. Usually, we celebrate this day by listening to the story of St.George and the dragon. It is story dating back to the 6th century and tells us that St George rescued a maiden by slaying a fearsome fire-breathing dragon. The Saint's name was shouted as a battle cry by English knights who fought beneath the red-cross banner of St George during the Hundred Years War (1338-1453).

    We then sing two traditional English songs: ‘Hey Ho, Nobody Home’ and ‘What will we do with the Drunken Sailor’. We hope you enjoy these songs too:
