ON THE WAY TO SCHOOL
MIREILLE:

On the way to school each morning,

Making sure they won't be late,

All the animals are going

With their books they just can't wait.
EMMANUEL:

Little mouse wears great big glasses,

And the peacock holds a pen,

Here's the duck who loves his classes,

Baby chicks with mama hare.
PLACIDO:

Five little kittens wearing their mittens

Tend to lag behind.

They might be scared, but they won't be spared

From their very first time.
LES TROIS:

On their way to school each morning

You can hear the turtle sigh,

She's a huffing and a puffing,

Every inch just like a mile.
MIREILLE:

On the way to school together

Just because they love to learn

Go the beasts by any weather,

Always happy to return.
EMMANUEL:

See the camel with his knapsack,

The giraffe beside the skunk,

Baby elephant had sit back,

Holding mama by the trunk.
PLACIDO:

Here come the monkeys, the zebras and donkeys.

The chickens and the horse.

They realise the way to get wise

Is to read of course.
LES TROIS:

Said the turtle to the panda.

When she got to school so late,

Gonna send a note to Santa,

Ask him for a pair of skates,

Ask him for a pair of skates!
