Primary Seven's Assembly by Caitlin (P5)

Today was our Primary Seven's last assembly. We are really sad to see them go. They talked about their week in Paris and made a power point presentation about their trip! Here are two of the songs that they sang at their assembly. We really liked them, we hope you do too!

(Positive) Attitude, positive attitude.

Attitude, positive attitude.

What helped Columbus cross the sea?
Attitude.
What helped Ford build the Model T?
Attitude.
What helped Beethoven write a tune?
Attitude.
What helped Armstrong walk on the moon?
Attitude.

When you know something that has to be done,
You've gotta go out and do it.
And when you have a positive attitude,
You'll find there's nothing to it.

What helped the Wright Brother's fly their plane?
Attitude.
What helped Gene Kelly sing in the rain?
Attitude.
What helped Doctor King have a dream?
Attitude.
What helped inspire ev'ry winning team?
Attitude.

When you know something that has to be done,
You've gotta go out and do it.
And when you have a positive attitude,
You'll find there's nothing to it.

Attitude, positive attitude.
Attitude, positive attitude.

Song 2
We are the future. We are the now.

People always say, " The children are our future;
The leaders of tomorrow, not today."
But we can make a difference in the here and now
If you listen close to what we have to say.
Chorus:

We are the future.
We are the now.
We are the reason why.
We are the way how.
We have dreams to dream and lives to live.
We have love to share and love to give.
We can do whatever this world will allow.
We are the future.
We are the now.

Children of the world,
we all must work together.
There's no time to hesitate.
Together we can make this world
a brighter place.
We must start right now.
Tomorrow is too late.
(To Chorus)

We are people just like you,
With important things to do.
We don't want to sit and watch the time go by.
We feel sunshine; we feel rain.
We feel happiness and pain.
We can feel success if we're allowed to try.
(To Chorus)

We hope you enjoyed Primary Seven's songs.
We are now looking foward to our summer holidays and we in Woodhill hope that you, all our friends around the world , enjoy your holidays too.

Visit to Italy

In March 2007 Mrs Buchanan, Mrs Brown and Miss Young went to Italy as part of a Comenius visit. They met with Comenius partners from Italy, Germany, Austria and the Czech Republic. Everyone had a fantastic trip and spent time visiting Italian schools, meeting pupils and staff, sightseeing in Rome, Assisi and Perugia and taking part in some local traditions such as cheese throwing!

Here are a few photographs from our trip.

Citizenship Poem

Here is a poem written by the children in Italy. It was read to the teachers who visited during the Comenius trip in March 2007.

In English
We are Italian and you are Czech
We are Italian and you are Austrian
We are Italian and you are Scottish
We are Italian and you are German
But we are
ALL EUROPEAN
We are European and you are African
We are European and you are Asian
We are European and you are Australian
But we are all CITIZENS
of the same WORLD


In Italian
Ode al COMENIUS
Noi siamo Italiani e voi siete Cechi
Noi siamo Italiani e voi siete Austriaci
Noi siamo Italiani e voi siete Scozzesi
Noi siamo Italiani e voi siete Tedeschi
Ma
noi siamo
TUTTI EUROPEI
Noi siamo Europei e voi siete Africani
Noi siamo Europei e voi siete Asiatici
Noi siamo Europei e voi siete Australiani
Noi siamo Europei e voi siete Americani
Ma
noi siamo tutti
CITTADINI
Dello stesso
MONDO

Look After Our Earth

Primary 5 have been learning a song about how pollution has damaged our Earth.
Please look after our World.

Listen to our song.

The captain of the rocket ship said, "Come over here
I’ve got a little job for you there’s nothing to fear.
I want you out in space, please do it for me,
And come back in and tell me what you see, what you see, what you see, what you see".

I started to put on my suit, I pulled up the zip
To tell the truth I didn’t want to jump from that ship.
I swung a cylinder of air behind like a sack
I jumped out into outer space without looking back, looking back, looking back.

The first thing there below me was my own spinning world,
Surrounded by polluted smoke that billowed and curled.
And I could see the blackened place where the forests had been.
I cried out, "This is dreadful! Tell me what does it mean, does it mean, does it mean".

The captain of rocket said, “for what it is worth,
I think you may have learnt a lot concerning your Earth.
You simply can’t go on this way just year after year.
Now let’s go back and shout our message out loud and clear, loud and clear, loud and clear".
Hey wake up!
