“Praznik” - HOLIDAY
Music: Stefan Diomov
Text: Bogomil Gudev
By the path in the morning
a salesman met me with flowers.
It was weekday that day,
quiet and most ordinary.
And flowers are bought by the world,
since they have to decorate a holiday.
But I don't know why now,
how it happened and what it was.
On this weekday, on this day,
quiet and most ordinary
I involuntarily stopped in front of the flowers
and I reached out with my eyes to them.
Chorus:
There is Joy hidden somewhere near us.
And the hour comes
when without asking us
she flies in.
The salesman smiled and
handed me a flower without money.
It was weekday that day,
quiet and most ordinary.
And bells rang countless,
that it suddenly became a holiday.
Chorus:
There is Joy hidden somewhere near us.
And the hour comes
when without asking us
she flies in.
But I don't know why now,
how it happened and what it was.
On this weekday, on this day,
quiet and most ordinary
and bells rang countless,
that it suddenly became a holiday,
and bells rang countless,
that it suddenly became a holiday.
What brings us Joy?
When everything in us
is in harmony, Joy affects us and turns ordinary days into holidays.
Children and adults
celebrate, the whole world celebrates. But a holiday with flowers is more
beautiful, that's why we decorate with flowers on a holiday. On this day, everyone
is smiling, bells are ringing and Joy just flows without asking…
The students of 22
SEU "G.S. Rakovski" - 2 "B" class and their teacher - Mrs.
Aneta Lukanova are happy to present the song "Holiday" - music:
Stefan Diomov, lyrics: Bogomil Gudev for their participation in eTwinning
project - Schoolovision 2024.
Our video is very educational this year! You do not need to know our language to understand the message. However, we hope it is mainly fun :-)
We are happy to be here again and enjoying all your entries.
Good luck to everyone. And remember: Čistite si zuby!!!
Wars create situations when feelings of loneliness, fear, stress and grief become an inseparable part of our lives. These feelings can ultimately be harmful for all the humans but especially, they are dangerous for kids. At the same time, a wonderful hug from a family member or friend will be more than handy. Schoolovision is like a big friendly family!!!!
That is why this year we have chosen the song “Obiimy” to embrace all the children who need hugs of love and support and those who experience wars in their countries and those who know what wars are. We would like to be hugged and to hug everyone who needs it. We would like to share this “happiness hormone” with you - our friends and partners. Thank you for your support for Ukraine! We are more than grateful! Let’s stop wars!
Somewhen comes the day,
And war will be over,
Where I've lost myself,
Seen it all to the bottom.
Hug me, hug me, hug me
So tenderly and never let go,
hug me, hug me, hug me
Let your spring come again.
This year we wanted to make a fun and catchy song for the Schoolovision contest. Something that would make people smile! We also wanted to say that we are all connected - “under the big blue sky” - and when we sing and dance that is something to think about. And the fact that we are two schools in the south of Norway cooperating this year!
The sun will shine and give us hope, the stars will show us the way.
The monument of "The White City" where everyone lives equally. The city which accepts everyone and sees the good and simple in every person.
The olive tree which grew inside the rock, symbolizes continuity, tradition. The roots are planted deep in the ground. Our family will comfort us and our roots will be our strength.
The olive tree grows in the Mediterranean climate and is a symbol of peace and health and one of the symbols of the Land of Israel.
We hope for a better future. Waiting for the sun rising and lightening the way.
We are the people, we will live and create. The sun will shine upon us.
This year, the song we present to Schoolovision meets more objectives and is personalized for the school in different aspects.
The video clip shows in a
familiar way the work of some members of the center, who together with the
teachers, work for the children and keep the school running.
The song integrates the
school's values in its lyrics, and in its second half, it is Dani Pérez's own
composition, a primary school teacher. So, the song is tailor-made.
YES, LORD YES
I’ll say yes, Lord yes. To your will and to
your ways.
I’ll say yes, Lord yes. I will trust you
and obey.
When your Spirit speaks to me.
With my whole heart I’ll agree.
And my answer will be yes, Lord yes.
Zuri bai, beti. Zurekin nahi dut bizi.
Ta zuregandik dena nahi dut ikasi.
Galduta nagoenean
Itsuka zuregana
Bide hoberik ez dago ta.
A - le - luya
A - le - luya
Enjoy and good luck to everyone!
Kurittula school is very happy to be able to represent Finland in the Schoolovision 2024 contest! Our song this year is a Finnish children's song Saimaannorppa (The Saimaa Seal). The song is about an endangered Finnish animal species whose protection is important.
The Saimaa seal
(Composition & Lyrics Leena Untamala, Lyrics in English Pauliina Kaksonen)
I’m a Saimaa seal called Armas. I’ve got flippers, missing toes.
I play with friends in water, we fish swirling under water.
You can see me here, on a rock or on the frozen lake.
There are only few of us left, so for our good, please protect.
:,: Hi, hi, I’m a Saimaa seal! Hi, hi, I say hi to you! :,:
I am aware for the lake is so vast. I probably dodge the nets but only just.
I high five my friends and together we start to sing.
You can see me here, on a rock or on the frozen lake.
There are only few of us left, so for our good, please protect.
:,: Hi, hi, I’m a Saimaa seal! Hi, hi, I say hi to you! :,:
I really enjoy just lingering, that’s why I crawl towards the beach and start floating.
:,: Hi, hi, I’m a Saimaa seal! Hi, hi, I say hi to you! :,:

We are the International Talent Academy school. Greetings from Uzbekistan!
International Talent Academy school is happy to participate in the Schoolovision contest for the first time on behalf of Uzbekistan.
Our primary years students with the help of teachers created a song called "I pLove you".
At International Talent Academy, we take pride in celebrating our rich cultural heritage and traditions. In Uzbekistan, one of our favorite dishes is the traditional national dish called Pilaf, known as pilau, plov in various parts of the world. This dish holds a special place in our hearts as it symbolizes unity, togetherness, and shared experiences.
As an international school, we believe we should celebrate our diversity in the way that it unites us rather than set boundaries. Our school community is a melting pot of different cultures, languages, and backgrounds, and we celebrate this diversity every day.
One of the ways we express our unity and friendship is by inviting our friends to join us around the table with a delicious serving of Pilaf. It is during these moments that we not only enjoy a flavorful meal but also engage in meaningful conversations about global issues, the importance of friendship, and the pursuit of peace.
Through our participation in the Schoolovision contest, we hope to share a glimpse of our school's values, culture, and hospitality with the world. We invite you to watch our video, listen to our song, and immerse yourself in the beauty of the Uzbek language. We hope that our message of love, unity, and friendship resonates with you and inspires you to embrace diversity in all its forms.
We are happy to spread joy and positivity through music, food, and the universal language of love. Thank you for being a part of our story!
Lyrics:
Cheksiz dunyo xaritasida,
Osiyoning qoq o‘rtasida.
O‘zbekiston degan diyor bor,
Go‘zallikda erur betakror.
Do‘stim kelaqol,
Dasturxon tayyor,
Chorlaydi seni
Go‘zal, yorqin O‘zbekiston!
Bu palov, bu somsa, bu patir -
Olamga tatir.
Kel do‘stim, mehmon bo‘l -
Ko‘p do‘stlar seni kutayotir.
We serve up our plov
Always with Love

But we have a good old tradition,
Keeping us in top condition.
I pLove you my friend

Lyrics translated into English
On the map of the infinite world,
In the middle of of Asia.
Uzbekistan has a land,
In beauty, our land is unique.
My friend come and join us,

Beautiful, bright Uzbekistan!
It's pilaf, it's somsa, it's patir -
Its taste spread to the universe.
