Ready, Steady, Sing: Bookbug singing confidence booster sessions

We know that families love to hear you sharing songs and rhymes, but many of us are out of the habit after the pandemic. If you would like to sing with more confidence, sign up for this informal fun singing workshop. Ready, Steady, Sing sessions will help you rebuild your confidence, refresh your content, and reignite your passion for singing.

Our Early Years trainers will be joined by Lucinda Geoghan(this will open in a new window), from the National Youth Choir of Scotland, who will lead us through a range of nursery songs, looking at techniques to help you feel calm and confident, in a lively and enjoyable way.

Please note: No solo singing required!
