THE ADVENTURE by TheSheds

Playing football I feel free

Playing cricket I’m out of breath

Swimming makes me nervous

Swimming makes me scared

Going on an adventure

Going on an adventure

Going on an adventure

I’m excited and I’m happy

And I’m happy, and I’m happy

I’m happy, tired and safe at School

I’m comfortable at my Nanna’s

I’m joyful & playful at the park

In the country I’m relaxed

 

HOLDING UP THE WORLD by The Sunflowers

She’s powerful and brave

Holding on to the world

Holding up good feelings

Holding her family

Hold on to your dreams

Hold on to your breath

Holding up the world, waving your flag

Holding up the world, waving your flag

Holding onto home

Holding good emotions

Thoughts lift as she dreamed

Never letting go of memories
