Schools Linking
Rochdale 2026
Rochdale 2026
26 characters. 13 songs. One town full of stories.
What happens when two classrooms meet, choose a stranger from L. S. Lowry’s Our Town, and imagine who they might be?
Children from schools across Rochdale worked with James Lyons, an artist from Make Mouth Music, to bring 26 characters to life through poetry, rap and music. Each song brings together two characters created by children from different schools..
