She said: “Most of the babies have been through intensive care. They are used to alarms like this, beeps, blood pressure monitoring, constant procedures.

“They have never had a chance of having a more normal life.”

Twins Maeve and Frankie were born by emergency C-section at 27 weeks.

Mum Corron said it has been a “scary” time with “lots of ups” and “lots of downs”.

She is one of the parents who have been encouraged to share a few words about her little ones so that the students can create personalised lullabies.

“A lot of the time they write things about being brave, and being calm and having strength, which is encouraging,” said 18-year-old Harrie Wilson, who enjoys turning the notes into songs.

“Often there’s nicknames for the babies,” she added.
