(Photograph) - Young musicians from Nunu Day Nursery in Cheshire get ready to record the vocals for their new CD, a compilation of original songs and rhymes written by their pre-school teacher, Natasha Melbon. Using her Masters degree in music, Natasha has developed a unique method of supporting creative expression. She said, 'Once I've written the music, the children use their imaginations, respond to experiences and express and communicate their ideas by introducing themes and lyrics.' The CD features the Nunu anthem, which is sung each year at the children's 'graduation' ceremony.
