00:00Mum, please, can you help me warm up?
00:04Okay, breathe.
00:19We need to show that you're at least trying to make your situation better.
00:22Or they're going to take your benefit, you're going to lose your power,
00:24poo your pants and then I have to come clean it up.
00:27It's yuck.
00:31At Francis, our standards are extremely high.
00:34The person we're after needs to be a little bit more like us.
00:38When you walked into the interview, I thought,
00:40now here's someone that can offer my kids something different.
00:44That's what I came to discuss.
00:46I'm starting a school choir.
00:49You want to rub your hands together like this.
00:51You can tell me what choir's about.
00:53Singing? Yeah.
00:55Okay, that's a work in progress.
01:04If you disrespect the master, you exercise.
01:06Your power.
01:07This is a teaching institution.
01:10Otherwise you'd get the jandal.
01:12With love, of course.
01:14I wanted to tell you guys about a national choir competition called the Big Sing.
01:18I think you should do it.
01:21What is this?
01:22They're a bunch of spoiled rich kids that have everything they could ever want.
01:25You don't know them.
01:27You can't just throw some Sunday school group together and sing Kumbaya.
01:31You felt that I could give these kids something.
01:34This is that something.
01:36I want you to promise me that you will not stop singing.
01:41Focus on the breaths around you.
01:43The space between us.
01:45It connects us.
01:47To our choir, our family, to our community.
01:52She's now gone.
01:54I see her in every kid that you've ever taught.
