Songs We Sang At a school visit, someone (thank you, Jessica!) asked if "Going Home Tomorrow!" was a real song, and then when I said yes, we had the idea of putting it on the site. I've also put: "Early One Morning" -- words, notes for playing and singing, and the tune played on a piano "Green Grow the Rushes, O!" -- words, notes for playing and singing, and the tune played on a piano If anyone sings and records "Going Home Tomorrow!" please send me the file and I'll put it up.
And here is one of the songs the others sang at the midnight feast.. Scroll and click to hear the tune played on a piano.	This is the song we sang on the last day of term. Meanwhile, if anyone sings it and records it (maybe some of you have the equipment to do that and could get a group of your friends to sing it really loudly?), please email it to me AND I WILL POST IT.
	I will put in more songs if people ask me to. Please email me at Libkoponen@aol.com. Thanks!
