Rosie's Walk

One of our favourite stories is Rosie's Walk by Pat Hutchins!
Have you seen the video? A firm favourite in Rainbow and Sunshine! 
Many of us are unable to access You Tube at school due to filters.
You could try downloading it onto a Recordable CD. 




The music playing in the video is called "Turkey in the Straw."
I haven't been able to find out who the musicians are in the video ~ let me know if you do please!
The following video features Martin Gross playing the song - I plan to use the music for dance.



You can find  other resources for the story by clicking Autumn Term and scrolling down the page until you come to Rosie's Walk.
