Fischy Music is a charity that supports emotional, social and spiritual health and wellbeing in primary age children through songs, singing and songwriting. Our work helps children to reflect on and discuss their emotional response to issues they have to face in everyday life.

We write songs that are easy to use in schools. We produce backing tracks, teaching videos and teaching notes to ensure that even people who don’t believe they are musical, can use our material both in the classroom and for group events, such as assemblies.

Statement: In all our work we aim:

To create an experience which promotes the emotional, social and spiritual wellbeing of children To improve long term resilience, well-being, sense of relationship and belonging of the whole community through active participation To increase the ability of children to recognize and

Manage their own emotions and their relationships with others - demonstrated by improved relationships in the school community To enable children to become effective contributors within their own and the wider community Stephen Fischbacher - Creative Director Resources: We have produced
