Results of the Belgian musical evaluation

HERE ARE THE VOTES OF THE BELGIAN JURY.....

The Comenius Song we have created together during the Belgian European week is the one which has got the most votes : we wrote the lyrics during workshops and sang it together on Friday November 9^th during  the show presented to the families. It’s one of our first European products.

Students have chosen “Thrift shop” by Macklemore because this song encourages young people to use clothes that have already been worn in order not to judge people on what they own but on what they really are.  And it’s really one of the main goals of an European project : social mixing. Furthermore every young European nowadays knows this song ; so that’s music shared by everyone and reminding good memories of our weeks together.

Belgian teachers have preferred “We are the champions” by Queen because we can only work on a project like this if we coordinate teachers, students, parents, principals of a same school but also from the other partner schools.  And together we’ve achieved many great things this school year.

Another choice is Humba Täterä by Tim Toupe ft DJ Padre. This song has been sung so many times in Germany during the trips, during the free time,… Even if that song didn’t belong to our musical world before that European week, everybody has adopted it and now, it symbolizes our work and our experience together, especially in Germany.

Of course our wonderful dancing performance in Greece on “La corde à sauter” by Moussier Tombola is not to be sniffed at but we have selected another French song to end this musical evaluation : “Attention au départ” by Les Enfoirés. This song tells in French that you need the different skills of everyone involved in a project to achieve something great.  What our European project is concerned, it’s really the case : we need coordinators gifted in different ways to be complementary, several types of  participants : leaders, dancers, actors, singers, musicians, potato peelers, public speakers, entertainers,  active students, boys, girls…….to live such a wonderful and unique European experience !!!

A special thanks for anyone who has taken part in this evaluation.
