The popular, Kenyan, Ringtone

I am not one of those teachers that spend their evenings with friends talking about the pupils in my class or the things they get up to. (I have to admit that I did this in my first year of teaching-but how can you not when a TV is thrown out of a classroom window by an 8 year old!).
Anyhow, sometimes we just have to share.

At assembly this week I could not stop smiling. They showed a music video of a song that a pupil  ('Sammy Vee') had a hand of producing.  He and his friends from class are in the video, (and if you knew these children, you would know they are just so special-friendly, enthusiastic, hardworking...) and it was just great to see what these amazing children have been getting up to on their weekend! Ringtone, the Kenyan artist that the song was produced with, is a popular urban gospel singer here, who apparently has a big future.

Hope you like the video!


I really like the song-it got some playtime on a UK radio station recently. Hope you like it!
