My First Skool’s original song aims to instil gratitude in children
Children from My First Skool perform the My First Skool gratitude song through a music video
During this year’s May Day rally organised by the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC), preschool children from My First Skool (MFS) performed a gratitude song titled “Thank You, Everyone” through a music video. In addition to thanking everyone who contributed to building Singapore, the children also expressed their gratitude to their parents, teachers, and friends. Everyday heroes such as bus drivers, taxi drivers, doctors, nurses, and preschool cooks were also recognised for their effort through the song.
The approximately 2 minute and 20 second-long music video, which features the children singing”Thank You” in English, Mandarin, Malay, and Tamil, was specially produced by MFS and co-written by Thian Ai Ling, General Manager of MFS.
The song aims to instil gratitude in MFS children, a value critical in bolstering their social awareness and ability to build positive relationships with diverse individuals so they become empathetic and responsible beings.
