I was thrilled and honoured to have sixty grade three students from St. Sebatian School in south Calgary sing The Ballad of The Famous Five as part of their Arts and Culture evening in May, 2012.
I was able to attend with my 85 year old Mom and we were both brought to tears by the beauty of the children's voices and the honesty and energy that they brought to the lyrics. The words seem to shine when sung by these young people who gave a sense of real honour to the work of the Famous Five.
These children are going to take a bus trip to Olympic Plaza to sing my song as part of a celebration on the anniversary of The Persons Case next October 18. I am going to be in tears again!!
