We are the ones

We Are the Ones

a song composed by Year 4 students, November 2014

CHORUS
We are, we are the ones who work
We are, we are the ones who play
We are, we are the ones who dream,
Every day.

School is where we come to learn
Languages and art.
Communication is the key
To unlock our heart

CHORUS
We are, we are the ones who work
We are, we are the ones who play
We are, we are the ones who dream,
Every day.

We create and we connect
With energy and pride.
Any day and any time
Our soul will be our guide

CHORUS
We are, we are the ones who work
We are, we are the ones who play
We are, we are the ones who dream,
Every day.

We encourage everyone,
Whether big or small,
Live for peace at Nations school
And for one and all

CHORUS
We are, we are the ones who work
We are, we are the ones who play
We are, we are the ones who dream,
Every day.

CLAP RHYTHM OF CHORUS

Lots of people work so hard
Every day and night,
Parents, teachers, principals
Keep us shining bright

CHORUS (plus CLAPS on last line!)
We are, we are the ones who work
We are, we are the ones who play                                               
We are, we are the ones who dream,

Every day. (x2)

The Migration of the Clarinet

Did you know that when the first clarinet was first invented in Germany in the early 1700's, composers travelled great distances across Europe to hear this new instrument. Here is a short example of its migration to various European cities:

  • 1751 German composer, J. C. Bach introduced the clarinet to London. 

  • 1751 Haydn uses the clarinet for the first time in his "First Mass." 
  • By 1759 The clarinet was heard in St. Petersburg. 

  • 1764 Mozart hears the clarinet in London. 

  • By 1780 most orchestras included a pair of clarinetists in their membership. 

  • 1780 In England the clarinet was used in church bands.

SEE YOU AGAIN

It's been a long day without you my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again

We've come a long way from where we began
Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
When I see you again

So, You might not believe your ears
If us in year 6 tell you about
the good times we’ve been through                                   -6i
Talking to you about another way we’ve had in PYP

We’ve had lots of fun
But something told us that it would last in PYP and learned        -6b
a lot along the way
Those were the days hard work forever pays now we’re ready

How could we not talk about primary
when PYP’s all we got?
Everything we’ve been
through you were standing there by my side
And now you gonna be with me for the last time.         ALL

It's been a long day without you my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again         ALL

We've come a long way from where we began
Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again     ALL
when I see you again

Oh Oh Ohhh Ohhh
Oh Oh Ohhh Oh Ohh

oo oo oo oo ooh
OO Oh, oo ooh
oo ooh, oo oo ooh
oo ooh,oo ooh

First we both look out
And the work is feeling strong
We all love friendship, a friendship                                               -6o
Turn into a bond
and that bond will never Be broken
and the love will never get lost
friends that we love
We will never give it up


When that line had to be drawn and that line is what
We reach so remember PYP when It's gone

How could we not talk about primary when PYP’s all we got?
Everything we’ve been
through you were standing there by my side
And now you gonna be with me for the last time

So let the PYP guide us to MYP, yeah
Hold every memory as we go


And every step we take
will always lead us home
Home

It's been a long day without you my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again

We've come a long way from where we began
Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
when I see you again

Tchaikovsy's 1812 Overture

Tchaikovsy (1840-1893)
 was a Russian composer. He wrote some really great music (including the music for the ballets, Swan Lake, and The Nutcraker and the famous 1812 Overture, which he composed in 1880). 

The 1812 Overture  commemorated Russia’s victory over Napoleon’s troops, when they failed to conquer Russian territory in 1812. The piece lasts about 15 minutes, and is best known for its grand finale with cannon fire, ringing chimes and brass fanfare. Have a listen

LIKE AN EAGLE

Now is the time to follow the wind, to walk alone,
And a star will show the way,
Above the clouds, beyond the sea,
And now is the time,
Now and farewell,
And as we part
You taught me well,
You gave me strength,
You showed the way;
I’ll not forget you.

Like an eagle I will soar above the clouds,
I will spread my wings and fly in to the sun.
Like an eagle I will race above the stars,
I will fly to places yet unseen,
Go beyond my wildest dream,
Know that you are watching over me.

And all alone I follow the stars above as my guide,
As my guide, I trust in you to show the way to me,
Beyond the sea.
And now is the time,
Now and farewell,
And as we part,
You taught me well,
You gave me strength,
You showed the way;
I’ll not forget you.

Like an eagle I will soar above the clouds,
I will spread my wings and fly in to the sun.
Like an eagle I will race above the stars,
I will fly to places yet unseen,
Go beyond my wildest dream,
Know that you are watching over me.

I can fly with the eagle to the mountain high,
Race with the eagle to the rising sun
And soar with the eagle so far beyond my dreams.
Like an eagle I will fly.

Like an eagle I will soar above the clouds,
I will spread my wings and fly in to the sun.
Like an eagle I will race above the stars,
I will fly to places yet unseen,
Go beyond my wildest dream,
Know that you are watching over me.

(81)
Like an eagle I will race above the clouds,
Like an eagle I will fly,
Like and eagle I will fly.

(86)
Fly, I’m gonna fly the highest mountain,
Fly, I’m gonna fly above the clouds, x 2


Like an eagle I will fly.

CELEBRATION!

Celebration
Let’s have a great  -  big -
Cymbal-crashing, firework-flashing celebration!
World -  class -
Trumpet-blasting, everlasting celebration!
Let’s for once say we couldn’t care less;
Goodbye to finesse,
Everybody say yes,
To having one  -  big - rough and ready rash and heady celebration!
Hair   down, wild and wacky, really tacky celebration!
One great night of music and delight,

Here’s to you and here’s to one big celebration!

Singing All Together lyrics


Singing—Altogether
Singing—Just for joy.
Singing—Altogether
Every—girl and boy.

Everybody singing a song,
Everybody singing a song,
Everybody sing all day long,
Everybody sing all day long.

La la la la la la, la la la la

Pom pom pom, pom pom pom,
Pom pom pom, pom pom pom,

Sing your song, and sing it all day long.
Sing your song, and sing it all day long.

All you do is raise your voice,
It’s a simple choice.



Molly Malone lyrics


In Dublin’s fair city,
Where the girls are so pretty,
I once set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
As she wheeled her wheelbarrow
Through the streets, broad and narrow,
Singing, Cockles and mussels,
Alive alive-o

Alive alive-o
Alive alive-o
Singing, Cockles and mussels,
Alive alive-o

She was a fishmonger
But sure ‘twas no wonder,
For so were her mother and father before,
And they each wheeled their barrow
Through the streets, broad and narrow,
Singing, Cockles and mussels,
Alive alive-o

She died of a fever,
And no one could save her,
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone
And her ghost wheeled her barrow
Through the streets, broad and narrow,
Singing, Cockles and mussels,
Alive alive-o
