Walking in the Air- 4A,4B,4C Children gaze open mouthed Taken by surprise Nobody down below believes their eyes We're surfing in the air We're swimming in the frozen sky We're drifting over icy mountains floating by Suddenly swooping low On an ocean deep Rousing up a mighty monster from his sleep We’re walking in the air We're dancing in the midnight sky And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly We're walking in the air We're walking in the air We're walking in the air We're floating in the moonlit sky The people far below are sleeping as we fly I'm holding very tight I'm riding in the midnight blue I'm finding I can fly so high above with you Far across the world The villages go by like dreams The rivers and the hills, the forests and the streams

Samih piano

Naba 4C: Our next song is a magical song called The Most Wonderful Day of the Year. It is about all the unwanted toys at Christmas time. This will be performed by 4D, 4E and 4F. We hope you enjoy it! Tiago 4C: After the song we will hear Lisa playing Allegro on the piano.

The Most Wonderful Day of the Year (4D, 4E, 4F) We're on the island of misfit toys Here we don't want to stay We want to travel with Santa Claus in his magic sleigh A pack full of toys means a sack full of joys For millions of girls and for millions of boys When Christmas day is here The most wonderful day of the year A jack-in-the-box waits for children to shout "Wake up! Don't you know that it's time to come out!" When Christmas day is here The most wonderful day of the year Toys galore scattered on the floor There's no room for more And it's all because of Santa Claus A scooter for Jimmy A dolly for Sue The kind that will even say "How do you do?" When Christmas day is here The most wonderful day of the year Niko 4F: How'd you like to be a spotted elephant? Megha 4E: Or a choo-choo with square wheels on your caboose! Isabelle 4D: Or a water pistol that shoots... jelly? [Spoken:] We are all misfits! If we're on the island of unwanted toys. We'll miss all the fun with the girls and the boys. When Christmas day is here. The most wonderful, wonderful, Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful day of the year!

Jacqueline 4E: Our next festive song is called We Need A Little Christmas Now. This will be performed by 4A, 4B and 4C. Zidan 4E: After the song, Lucie will be dancing to What do you Mean.

We need a little Christmas now (4A, 4B, 4C) Haul out the holly Put up the tree before my spirit falls again Fill up the stocking I may be rushing things, but deck the halls again now For we need a little Christmas Right this very minute Candles in the window Carols at the spinet Yes, we need a little Christmas Right this very minute It hasn't snowed a single flurry But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry So climb down the chimney Turn on the brightest string of light I've ever seen Slice up the fruitcake It's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen bough For I've grown a little leaner Grown a little colder Grown a little sadder Grown a little older And I need a little angel Sitting on my shoulder Need a little Christmas now For we need a little music Need a little laughter Need a little singing Ringing through the rafter And we need a little snappy "Happy ever after" Need a little Christmas now

Lucie Dancing

Varsha 4F: Our next song is an old Christmas favorite called Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas which will be sung by 4D, 4E and 4F. Neo 4F: After the song we will hear Tristan sing Winter Wonderland.

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas (4D, 4E, 4F) Have yourself a merry little Christmas Let your heart be light From now on our troubles will be out of sight Have yourself a merry little Christmas Make the Yuletide joy From now on our troubles will be miles away Here we are as in olden days Happy golden days of yore Faithful friends who are dear to us Gather near to us once more Through the years we all will be together if the fates allow Hang a shining star upon the highest bough And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
