Foster Carers

Foster carers are good

They do what they think they should

So don’t mess around

Give them a crown

They put up with us night and day

So give them your hand

Make them feel grand

Just don’t give them abuse

'Cos it's no use!

Teachers

Teacher Stop and think!

We aren’t bad we just have a lot on our mind

It is hard to explain

But we are just like everyone else

So don’t put it down and give us a frown

We come to school to escape

We don’t need hassle at school

I know there are rules

Just give us a chance

Don’t make a song and dance

Then we can prove we have the groove.
