Merry Xmas to you all with a song to sing along...!!

spoken:

Think about the generations and to say we want to make it a better world for our children and our children's children. So that they know it's a better world for them; and think if they can make it a better place.


There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much
Brighter than tomorrow.
And if you really try
You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel
There's no hurt or sorrow.
There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space, make a better place.

Chorus:
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for
You and for me.


If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong
It only cares for joyful giving.
If we try we shall see
In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread
We stop existing and start living
Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
Make a better world, make a better world.


Chorus:
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race.
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for
You and for me.


And the dream we would conceived in
Will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in
Will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life
Wound this earth, crucify it's soul
Though it's plain to see, this world is heavenly
Be God's glow.


We could fly so high
Let our spirits never die
In my heart I feel
You are all my brothers
Create a world with no fear
Together we'll cry happy tears
See the nations turn
Their swords into plowshares
We could really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space to make a better place.


Chorus:
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for
You and for me.


Refrain (2x)


There are people dying if you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me.
There are people dying if you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me.


You and for me / Make a better place
You and for me / Make a better place
You and for me / Make a better place
You and for me / Heal the world we live in
You and for me / Save it for our children
You and for me / Heal the world we live in
You and for me / Save it for our children
You and for me / Heal the world we live in
You and for me / Save it for our children
You and for me / Heal the world we live in
You and for me / Save it for our children

At the seaside...

Dear all,
in our schools we're working on the film. Our students chose pictures about their holiday and recorded their voices to tell you what they like to do at the seaside.
Here you can see some photos...
Now we'd like to know what are your activities and sports at the seaside. Could you tell us?
Thanks so much!!
Looking forward to reading about you,

your Italian friends

Return to work

Hi Everyone!

Tomorrow is our official first day back at school as our holidays come to an end. I met with Nancy, Janet and Linda on Monday to discuss our new term and I will meet with all the teachers on Friday to discuss Year 2 of our Comenius project. Lots of planning and hard work ahead, but MOST importantly, lots of FUN too!!



It was great to have our Italian friends over at the end of June for another visit. Our children and teachers thouroughly enjoyed having you here.



We are now looking forward to our next visit to Poland, although I think there are a few people interested in travelling to Spain or Italy around our October holiday, so we have a lot of arrangements to make.



The calendar looks very good and you have worked very hard on the new web page too, well done everyone!



Looking forward to hearing from you all again,



Best wishes,

Jacqui
