FunSongs in Milan

Scott Bishop teaches "Robin Hood's Band"

Yesterday Charles Goodger and FunSongs actors, Scott Bishop and Amy Hough set off at 5 in the morning for Milan to present four FunSongs Christmas shows at a Primary school in Lainate just outside the city. After a meeting with a Lainate-based record company to organize the reprinting of the new FunSongs CD, Charles then travelled into the centre - to the British Council in Via Manzoni - to attend the annual ELT conference where he hosted a well attended workshop for Primary School teachers entitled "Songs in Action". There was considerable interest in the FunSongs method.

Imminent show dates include Christmas shows in Bologna and European shows for a large Scuola Media near Siena.
