It's great to see you again.

Today we're going to go on a really big adventure.

We're going to travel on a bus, on a boat, and on a train, and we're going to visit all of the different countries that we've gone to in our adventures so far.

Would you like to come? All right, let's get ready, and I'll tell you what we're going to do.

First of all, we're going to jump on a London bus, and we're going to meet the Rodney the rapping driver.

Then we're going to go on the big ship on the Ally-Ally-O, and we're going to sail all the way to India for a train journey.

We're going to finish off today by singing the Sri Lankan lullaby, "Nila Nila." You will need your singing voice, your listening ears, and of course your imagination.

Right then, everybody, are you ready to jump on the bus? Let's go for a little walk down the street first.

So, put on your shoes, put on your hat and your bag, and let's get ready.

♪ This is the way we walk down the street ♪ ♪ Walk down the street, walk down the street ♪ ♪ This is the way we walk down the street ♪ ♪ When we go on a journey ♪ Are you walking? Walking, walking.

♪ This is the way we run for the bus ♪ ♪ Run for the bus, run for the bus ♪ ♪ This is the way we run for the bus ♪ ♪ When we go on a journey ♪ ♪ Running, running, running, running, ♪ ♪ Running, running, running, running ♪ ♪ Running, running, running, running ♪ Stop.

Phew.

We've got to the bus stop just in time, and here comes the bus, and I think it's our favourite driver.

Can you remember his name? He's called Rodney, and he loves to rap when he's driving.

Now you can tap on your knees if you like, but what I'm going to do today is I'm going to tap on my little drum, my little drum box.

Can you tap on your knees every time I tap on my drum box.

Are we ready? Okay.

One, two, three, four.

Off we go.

♪ I am a bus driver, I love to ride my bus ♪ ♪ But when it gets busy, I get all in a fuss ♪ ♪ The traffic is noisy and no one hears me speak ♪ ♪ So all I've got to do is just beep, beep, beep ♪ Your turn.

♪ Beep, beep, beep ♪ ♪ So all I've got to do is just beep, beep, beep ♪ Did you remember copy me on the beep, beep, beep? Shall we try one more time? This time you tap your knees like this.

This time, shall we make up some actions? That would be fun, wouldn't it? So, the first part goes I am a bus driver, I love to ride my bus.

What shall we do? Shall we do a steering wheel? Okay.

Ready, steady, off we go.

♪ I am a bus driver, and I love to ride my bus ♪ What's the next bit? When it is busy, I get all in a fuss.

Should we do this, getting in a bit of fuss, getting a bit flustered? Ooh, it's a bit stressful today on the bus, too much traffic.

From the beginning and off we go.

♪ I am a bus driver, I love to drive my bus ♪ ♪ But when it is busy, I get all in a fuss ♪ The traffic is noisy, what shall we do? Maybe this.

The traffic is noisy, and no one hears me speak.

♪ So all I've got to do is just beep, beep, beep ♪ ♪ Beep, beep, beep ♪ ♪ So all I've got to do is just beep, beep, beep ♪ Well done.

I think you're getting the hang of the words now.

One more time.

I'm going to do all the actions altogether right from the very beginning.

Ready, steady, off we go.

♪ I am a bus driver, I love to drive my bus ♪ ♪ But when it gets busy, I get all in a fuss ♪ ♪ The traffic is noisy, and no one hears me speak ♪ ♪ So all I've got to do is just beep, beep, beep ♪ ♪ Beep, beep, beep ♪ ♪ So all I've got to do is just beep, beep, beep ♪ Can you think of a different way to do the beeps this time.

Let's not do beep, beep, beep.

That's quite simple.

Can you think of something a bit more funky? I'm going to go beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.

Can you copy? Listen one more time.

Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.

One more time.

Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.

That was quite tricky.

♪ Right then, everybody, the bus has taken us all the way to the coast where the sea is, and it's time to jump on board the ship, the big, big ship.

And we're going to say all the way over the ocean to India.

It's probably going to take us weeks and weeks to get there.

Maybe even months, I don't know.

But whilst we're on our journey, let's sing our very silly song.

♪ Oh the big ship sales upon the Ally-Ally-O ♪ ♪ The Ally-Ally-O ♪ ♪ The Ally-Ally-O ♪ ♪ Oh the big ship sales upon the Ally-Ally-O ♪ ♪ Hey-Ho ♪ ♪ The Ally-Ally-O ♪ Did you remember the words? The big ship sales upon the Ally-Ally-O.

Now the remember the sailors on this ship are very silly.

They don't call the ocean the ocean.

They don't call the sea the sea.

No.

They call it the Ally-Ally-O.

Very silly sailors.

Would you like to call it a different name this time? Hmm, let me think.

Okay, what did we do last time? We said Ally-Ally-O and then we did plinky-plonk? Shall we call it the plinky-plonk this time? Okay.

are you ready? ♪ This time we're going to rock from side to side ♪ ♪ Ready, steady, off we go ♪ ♪ Oh the big ship sales upon the plinky-plinky-plonk ♪ ♪ The plinky-plinky-plonk ♪ ♪ The plinky-plinky-plonk ♪ ♪ Oh the big ship sales upon the plinky-plinky-plonk ♪ ♪ Hey-Ho ♪ ♪ The plinky-plinky-plonk ♪ How silly was that okay.

I'm going to think of one more.

Ooh, I can't think of anything.

I wonder, could I have some help from a friend? Teddy, Teddy always helps me out.

Teddy, what do you think the next one should be? Not Ally-Ally-O, not plinky-plinky-plonk, but.

Bibbidi-bobbidi-boo.

Very silly Teddy.

Okay, Teddy, that was a very good idea.

We're going to rock from side to side this time, and then we're going to bounce when we say bibbidi-bobbidi-boo.

Are you ready, Teddy? ♪ Oh the big ship sales upon the bibbidi-bobbidi-boo ♪ ♪ The bibbidi-bobbidi-boo ♪ ♪ The bibbidi-bobbidi-boo ♪ ♪ Oh the big ships sales upon the bibbidi-bobbidi-boo ♪ ♪ Hey-ho ♪ ♪ The bibbidi-bobbidi-boo ♪ Can you think of an even better idea? Okay, I'm going to leave a gap for your idea this time.

Are you ready? ♪ Oh, the big ship sales upon the ♪ ♪ The ♪ ♪ The ♪ ♪ Oh the big ship sales upon the ♪ ♪ Hey-Ho ♪ ♪ The ♪ ♪ Well done, everyone.

Give yourself a pat on the back.

A pat on the back.

Isn't everybody singing so well now, Teddy? Wonderful job, everybody.

Well, we made it all the way to India, and you know what they have loads of in India.

Loads and loads of trains.

Everybody goes everywhere by train, and some of the train go a really long way.

Some of them go all the way overnight.

That's such long journey.

Can you remember a rhyme about "Engine Engine Number Nine?" ♪ Engine, engine number nine ♪ ♪ Going down the railway line ♪ ♪ If the train should jump the track ♪ ♪ Do I get my money back ♪ ♪ Yes, no, maybe so ♪ ♪ Ready, steady, off we go ♪ Right then, everybody, it's time to stand up.

It's our friend the owl.

Now owls only come out at the night time, so it must be time to sing our special lullaby from Sri Lanka.

Can you remember what language we were singing in? It wasn't English.

It wasn't Hindi.

It was Tamil.

Well done.

My Tamil is not very good, Mr. Owl, but I'm going to try my best.

Maybe you speak Tamil.

You'll probably do it much better than me.

♪ Nila, Nila, Odi vaa ♪ ♪ Nillaamal Odi vaa ♪ ♪ Malai mela Eri Va ♪ ♪ Malligai Poo Kondu Vaa ♪ Wow, Mr. Owl, that was some beautiful dancing.

Would you like to do some dancing with Mr. Owl this time? Maybe you can get your fingers like this Like their wings, or maybe you've got a puppet that you'd like to use.

Okay, Mr. Owl is going to fly high when it's high and low when it's low.

♪ Off we go ♪ ♪ Nila, Nila, Odi vaa ♪ ♪ Nillaamal Odi vaa ♪ ♪ Malai mela Eri Va ♪ ♪ Malligai Poo Kondu Vaa ♪ Now so that Mr. Owl can join in, and so that all of you can join in, let's sing one more time, but let's just sing it to ooh.

Now, Mr. Owl, are you wanting to fly a bit higher this time? Mr. Owl loves flying high.

So we're going to fly even higher, and our voices are going to go even higher.

Can you go tweet twoo? Your turn.

Wow, Mr. Owl, you were singing so beautifully, and so was everybody at home.

♪ Well done, everyone ♪ Well, haven't we had a fun adventure today, Mr. Owl? Can you remember what we started with today and all the different things we've done? It's been ever so busy today.

We started on the bus, rapping with Rodney the bus driver.

I loved all the different rhythms of beeps that you decided to do.

Then we made up some very silly rhymes on the Ally-Ally-O.

And finally, we went on the engine, engine number nine in India, and we sang our beautiful Tamil lullaby.

I love the way that your voice went so beautifully high today, sounding just like Mr. Owl.

Don't forget, if you've had fun today, you can share all of your musical learning with your friends or your family with a photo or maybe a video.

And if there's an adult in your house who would like to share your musical learning on social media, they can tag @OakNational or maybe put a #LearnwithOak.

Well, we have come to the end of our big adventure, and you have been amazing.

Shall we sing our goodbye song? Okay, get your waving hands ready.
