Schoolovision Welsh Entry


This is a traditional Welsh song called "Sosban Fach". The song catalogues the troubles of a harassed housewife. It is sung a lot at Rugby matches, especially when the Lanelli Scarlets are playing! We really enjoyed singing it, especially the Oi! Oi!. You should all join in with this part.

Hwyl!

"Open your heart" from Iceland





The song “Open your heart” was sung in Eurovision 2003 by Birgitta Haukdal. The girls sang this song in Flatovision (a competition in our school - Flataskóli) in March and it was selected the best number. They sing the song in English and the dance is composed by the dancers. Enjoy :-)







[EDIT: I have posted this version of the song here, using blogger, so that our partners in Turkey, who can't view anything on youtube.com can watch the song. Michael]

Hot'n'cold - Song from France

This is the French contribution to schoolovision...although it is in English! As a matter of fact, I'm the English teacher of the children and we found it interesting to sing in English. Our song contains a lot of contraries, which we learned while singing, and it is easy to sing. So, come on: sing with us!

Greece -"The Game of Love"

Hello from Greece!

And the game of love is the path that we all should follow...

"O LUME MINUNATĂ" - ROMÂNIA

Childhood is the most beautiful stage in the life of any human being.. Adult persons would give anything to become children, children would give anything to grow up faster. So, give the children all the love you are able to give!
That’s what our song says.
“O lume minunată” ( It’s a wonderful world!)

" It's a wonderful world where you will find -Only children A world with a lot of sun and many toys -For Children. In this world with stories and flowers you will find -Only children And a world of innocence keep it anyway -For Children .
Yesterday we were children but the time changed usWe started in life and we had dreams fulfilled as we wanted Many good thoughts we collected and what we always learnt Children give the love we keep what's good to show them.What smile can be more truthful , more cleaner Which eyes know to talk so true? "

GOOD-LUCK EVERYONE!( Wherever you are from!)

Milimali - Song from Norway



This song is made by two of the pupils in class 6A in Odda; Amalie and Emilie. They made this song for their school when the school needed a song for their anti-bullying program.
They're singing about the school day, and being bestfriends.

England

This song is about our school and the fun we have learning about different subjects. We are sorry we cannot show the faces of our pupils on this blog because of strict codes of practice in our Local Authority. We can upload the video to the twin space on eTwinning with clear video pictures and I will do that later in the week.


[EDIT- NOTE TO ALL PARTNERS] You can view the lovely, clear version of this song now by logging in to the twin space for the Schoolovision project on the eTwinning portal. Just click on the eTwinning logo near the top of the blog to go directly to the portal.

Hello from Malta - Il-Vapur tal-Art

Our song is about the train which operated between Mdina (our old capital city) and Valletta (our capital city today). The train operated between 1883 and 1931. In 1931 the train stopped functioning, as it was too expensive to run. In a public garden in Birkirkara, one can find the remains of a train carriage and a former station used at the time when the train was a means of transport between the two cities.

"The Maltese train always worked at a loss,
But this train was a unique one which could not be found elsewhere..."
