It's anti-bullying week and I'm trying to find a song based around kindness, suitable for a primary school assembly...
I've done a search but have not really come up with much. I'm relying on you guys for help now; you've never failed me before!

You'll never walk alone? - might be able to get video etc for kids to sing along to
ink is black, page is white (specifically racism I think).

'You've got a friend' - James Taylor

Thanks for all the suggestions so far guys...just considering each of them now. The trouble is, as you can imagine, all of these suggested songs get quite a lot of exposure in various school assemblies!

Another one - you shouldnt get me started.
'I am a rock' Simon & Garfunkel - to show how someone that had been bullied might feel .

I suppose at least they will be familiar!!!!
primary school assemblies have certainliy changed since my days - but then it was an anglo-catholic primary in the 1960's

This is a Catholic school - but I agree, very different to the classical music that we listened to at my school!
Think I may have found one - Try a Little Kindness. Just listeneing to the Glen Campbell version on a particular site.
Thanks guys. x
