Ds has started singing lessons at his new school (in yr 7) -his school is a music specialist college and has massive music dept and is very well regarded.
They are in class time and he has to excuse himself to attend them once a week - all the children learning an instrument do this - his lesson is taken with a singing teacher and a yr 10 girl. He said the other day that he hadn't told anyone that he was having singing lessons specifically as none of the other boys seem to do them and I think he is a little embarrassed ! Does anyone else's secondary boy do singing and do they feel similarly I wonder ?
Incidentally,last night watching the X Factor we saw the 15 yr old boy singing and I think that perked him up !
