FunSongs in Rome and Naples



Santa Chiara church in the heart of old Naples

April 2006 was a difficult month for schools in Italy as there were so many vacations and interruptions. The Easter vacation and, a week before, the national elections, broke up the month and considerably reduced the number of study days. However, FunSongs made the most of the month culminating in a successful Rome-Naples tour with Animal, Robin Hood and Monster shows at the 105th Circolo Didattico in Rome and at the Minucci Primary School in the Vomero district of Naples. The photo of this famous church was taken from the roof of our Bed & Breakfast in the chaotic but colourful downtown of the ancient city. The kids in Naples were particularly responsive to the FunSongs Approach.
