John Darling Public School has created a new school song celebrating the Character and Values of their school community. This song writing project promoted a deeper connection to their school motto and to one another.

All of the students collaborated in the song writing process through workshops lead by Gary Rasberry (Recording Artist & Teacher).  Students from Jr. Kindergarten to Grade 6, as well as John Darling staff, joined their voices to share the message: “JD, JD, It’s a school for you and me.  Together we make it the best place to be.  John Darling Public School. JD!

The pride in their school could be seen in every smile and heard in each voice throughout the gymnasium. The school song writing project helped them to further build a positive school climate and sense of community!
