Words and Music written in collaboration with Kelsale Primary School. Arranged by Emily Barden.

Inspired by their class book The Boy at the Back of the Class, students from Kelsale Primary School wrote a powerful and moving song about the refugee crisis. This song is written through the eyes of a young refugee, and aims to raise awareness of the struggles faced by children both locally and across the world.

Important: While this song covers an important educational topic, we recognise that it explores a sensitive theme which may not be suitable for children or audiences who have this lived experience. Please read the song lyrics and think about your students before deciding to learn this song.
