Imagine. Cicle mig

Hi children,

Short after our Castanyada show, we start getting ready for our Christmas celebration!

In Cicle Mig we’ll be singing a song that has inspired many people around the world.

Imagine, by John Lennon

You may say I’m a dreamer,
but I’m not the only one.
I hope someday you’ll join us
and the world will be as one.
