Year 4 have made an excellent start to 2025 learning a number of new songs on their ukuleles including; Don’t worry, be happy by Bobby Mcferrin and Sunflower from the Spiderman movie. Both songs incorporate new chords for the children F major and D minor (dm) as well as more complex strumming patterns.

‘Don’t worry, be happy’ has the repeated chord pattern C major, D minor (dm) and F major, whereas ‘Sunflower’ has the chord pattern C major, F major, A minor (am), F major.

You can see below how 4G are getting on playing the chords for ‘Don’t worry, be happy’ and how 4A are playing our newest song, ‘I want to play my ukulele’. You will also see a number of individual, paired and grouped performances of the children who are really thriving learning a new instrument.
