I'm from the UK but I've never experienced this which is a shame. Thanks to those who organise these events so that we don't lose our cultural traditions.

Did you grow up in a city? I grew up in the countryside and it was a very common sight for me to see this each May...
The children dancing singing the oarents clapung as we go round and round plating our maypole DANCING oh the Joy
All the April showers have gone away Finally in the month of May kids play Around a May pole first day of May They laugh with joy together all day Around an round a May pole in May
It was the tradition and spread throughout the Commonwealth where sone schools n STILL dance the Old maypole
Remember doing this in primary school around 2009, such an epic throwback

More like the wicker man
Does anyone know what the music is? I'm sure I danced maypole to this same music as a young child, and I haven't heard it for over 20 years!

Hi George. They dance in and out to "Roast Beef of Old England", and the dance itself is to "The Hundred Pipers"

They're fine dancers as well, Simon. It's great to see children dancing the maypole to more traditional music: a trend down here in Kent at the moment seems to favour doing the same dances but to modern pop!
Nah my school played this at assembly
I`m child but this is my mom`s computer
