I’d do anything to go back to year 6 on the bench to song this absolute banger out loud

[hedgemist]

Aww, our year 6 kids leaving the hall after the final assembly of the year as the rest of the school sang this to them.

[SouthofMags]

We sang this at my husband’s memorial service. It’s really uplifting. 👍

[paulrenwick]

The memories of being in primary school 😂 happy days 😊

[dannyr]

Takes me back to my school days back in the 80s singing in assembly!

[CRIBDENCrafts]

Sad that so many schoolchildren of today will never be introduced to this at school. Apparent by the comments how it made a positive mark on so many schoolchildren in the past( hard wooden floors and all!)

All these kids are at least 29 years older than I am, And I was born in 1995.
These kids are in their 50s. Damn.

[wishingwell]

We always sang this on the last day of school every year. Listening to it still gives me that magical summer-holidays feeling.

[violetpaterson]

Me at the start of year 6- I can’t wait to leave this school.
Me today ( last day) - Crying- I don’t want to leave

[jahames]

It’s only been 7 years since I left primary school, but wow, it feels a lot longer

[danielclifton]

Nearly 40 and remember all the words without having to look....

[EsmaePinkney]

Guys I Got St Michaels Of C.E School Anyways I'm Singing it for The Year Six Leaver! 😂

[Autumngirl]

The fact that we still do this in sknging assembly😊

[mptalon]

This song can be interpreted as exploring themes of the soul’s journey through the ages (reincarnation) and also touches on the concept of a flat earth. Great song regardless.

[danieloconnell]

I well remember singing this song at junior school between 1977-1981. The key is G major (I have perfect pitch). The words didn't mean much at the time but I became a Christian at fourteen. I am now nearly fifty two and have a very good memory for tunes!
