Lyrics for Graduation Song

Friends Forever (Chorus)
As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
But as our lives change
From whatever
We will still be
Friends forever

We're All In This Together (Chorus 1 only)
We're all in this together
Once we know
That we are
We're all stars
And we see that

We're all in this together
And it shows
When we stand
Hand in hand
Make our dreams come true

Set 2: Ta  Ti-ti  Ta  Ta
Set 3: Ti-ti-ka Ti-ti  Ta  Ta
Set 4: Ta (rest rest rest)

Graduation Song Option 2: Say Goodbye Today (Carole King)


(We may consider customising some of the lyrics)

This love was endless
We always had tomorrow
Two hungry voices with so much left to say
We were working on forever
It was good in every way
I can't believe we're going say goodbye
Say goodbye today

My heart was captured
The moment that I saw you
You were my future, and I couldn't turn away
When I held you and you trembled
I was sure that you would stay
I can't believe we're going say goodbye
Say goodbye today

It was almost perfect
It was almost right
It was all the things we dreamed of in the middle of the night
It was just beginning
We had everything and more
Are we going let a love like this
Slip right through our fingers
Slip right through our fingers
And walk right out the door

Is love behind us
The secrets and the stories
One passing moment, a game we used to play
We were born to be together
Have we really lost our way

I can't believe we're going say goodbye
Lose it all forever
It could have been a lifetime
But we let it slip away

We were born to be together
Is there any other way
I can't believe we're going say goodbye
Say goodbye today

Graduation Song Option 1: Farewell to You My Friends (Raymond lauchengco)



We used to be frightened and scared to try
Of things we don’t really understand why
We laugh for a moment and start to cry
We were crazy

Now that the end is already here
We reminisce ’bout old yells and cheers
Even if our last hurrahs were never clear

Farewell to you my friends
We’ll see each other again
Don’t cry ’cause it’s not the end of everything
I may be miles away
But here is where my heart will stay
With you, my friends with you

Yesterday’s a treasure, today is here
Tomorrows’ on its way, the sky is clear
Thank you for the memories of all the laughter and tears
And not to mention our doubts and our fears
The hypertension we gave to our peers
It’s really funny to look back after all of these years

Farewell to you my friends
We’ll see each other again
Don’t worry ’cause it’s not the end of everything
I may be miles away
But here is where my heart will stay
With you, my friends with you

Farewell to you my friends
We’ll see each other again
Don’t worry ’cause it’s not the end of everything
I may be oceans away
But here is where my heart will stay
With you, my friends with you
With you, my friends with only you

Owl City, Carly Rae Jepsen - Good Time (Lyric Video)



We have selected Good Time for 6B Dance for P6 Graduation Concert.
As we reminisce* the good times we had, learning and playing together these 2 years, we will surely have a great and wonderful time preparing for our Good Time Dance.

The dance trainings are going to be tough as we do not have much time to learn and rehearse for it. To date, we have only learnt the chorus parts. We certainly look forward to putting all the dance steps together beautifully and to present our BEST on Graduation Day.

* reminisce = remember / recall

 

Post-Exams Movie: The Chronicles of Narnia



 
The movies were based on C. S. Lewis' novels (7 books): The Chronicles of Narnia.
There have been 3 film adaptations:
1) The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (2005)
2) Prince Caspian (2008)
3) The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (2010)

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
The story follows four British children who were evacuated during the Blitz to the countryside and found a wardrobe that led to the fantasy world of Narnia; there, they must ally with the Lion Aslan against the forces of the White Witch, who had the world under an eternal winter.

Prince Caspian was the second adaption to the Chronicles of Narnia franchise.
The whole production team from The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe returned.
The story follows four British children who returned to Narnia and found out that over 1300 years have passed and the land had been invaded by Telmarines. The four Pevensie children returned to aid Prince Caspian in his struggle for the throne against his corrupt uncle, King Miraz.

The Voyage of the Dawn Treader was the third official film in the series.
The story follows the two younger Pevensie children as they returned to Narnia with their cousin, Eustace. They joined the new king of Narnia, Caspian, in his quest to rescue seven lost lords to save Narnia from a corrupting evil that resided on a dark island.

Post-Movie Discussion:
Choose at least one of the the following questions and share your personal opinion after viewing the movie: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.

1) What lesson has Lucy learnt from the dream she had on the ship? (Dream: the spell which changed her look into that of Susan's.) Do you or your friend(s) have similar experience of wanting to look like someone else? Share you experience or opinion.

2) What would you do if you come across the magical pond in the show which could turn everything into gold? Explain your answer? What would you do if you have as much gold as seen in the movie? Why?

3) How would you describe Eustace's character before and after his visit to Narnia? What do you think had caused such changes in his character? Have you experience any event in your life which has changed your character/personality? Please share the your experience.









ICT Animation Lesson!

Pupils were very excited about this ICT lesson.
In groups, pupils took photos of one another in different poses.
They learnt to edit their photos using an animation software: picasion.com which places different poses into various layers. With a click of a button, they could then see their still photos being animated. It was an interesting lesson.


P6 Post PSLE E-Career Programme

Yeah! PSLE is finally over!
It's time for P6 pupils to explore their dream secondary schools. 
Pupils spent 4 periods at the computer lab, exploring the ecareers.sg website.
They found out more information on secondary schools of their choices. They could gather information on CCAs, school achievements, subjects offered etc by the various secondary schools. They also engaged in a simple animation game to find out more about the secondary school education landscape in Singapore. It was indeed an informative and enriching session.
