Hello Class 4!
Well done for another week of online learning! I am SO proud of your hard work, it always makes me smile to see so many of you responding to the blogs every day. You should all be proud of yourselves too!
At St. Vincent’s we were all thinking about how much we miss hearing you all sing! It always brings such joy to the school! We wondered if you miss singing too?
Well if you do you’re in luck! Have a look at this music lesson below. It has a voice warm up and some information about melody and pitch. Then it teaches you to sing a song. Perhaps you could sing it to someone at home? Or sing it with someone at home?

Think about which are your favourite songs from school. They could be some from Mass, a celebration or one of our assemblies. On the blog, write your favourite song and explain why it is your favourite. This old news post on our school website might help you to remember some songs as it has a link to a page with lots of our school songs.

If you would like to, perhaps you could write a new verse for your favourite song or design an album cover for your favourite song? You could use colours and images which remind you of your favourite piece of music.
I look forward to hearing which songs you have enjoyed most. I think my favourite is How Far I’ll Go which is from Moana but we sang it during our class assembly on Ernest Shackleton. It has such a lovely tune and I like the lyrics (that means the song words).
From Miss Lee 🙂

I like Easter jubilation, Stone Age version of we will rock you and food glorious food.
All great songs! Thank you for sharing Vincent!
our favourite song was naghty matilda.
That is a good song! Are you going to sing it over in Spain?!
I liked all of the songs because I think they all have their own beauty.
I am glad you enjoy all of the songs! Are you going to sing any at home today?
Hello Miss Lee
My favourite song in the school is “all I want is a proper cup of coffee” because it is funny and you have to challenge yourself to go faster. I will send my album cover!
Hello Martin!
Ah yes I remember this one… it always gets stuck in my head for the rest of the day after we sing it at school and I find myself singing it! In fact… now you’ve reminded me about it I am probably going to be singing it all day, especially when I make myself a coffee!
My favourite song is we will rock you because it has a nice rhythm and just makes you feel energised
It is a great song I agree!
My fravourite song is he’s alive ?
Yes that’s another joyful song! I can picture everyone swaying side to side and singing it in the hall!
I don’t really have a favourite song because I don’t really sing 😉
Are there any songs which you hear at school which make you feel happy or joyful?
I also like “all I want is a proper cup of coffee because when it got quicker and quicker
I always find it tricky to keep up with you all when you sing it faster and faster! It’s a bit like a tongue twister! Can you sing it fast?
Please read the blog carefully, it says your favourite song that we have sung at school.
Some of you have written some of your favourite songs that we don’t sing at school (thank you for sharing, it is great to hear all of your favourites).
I can’t post these on the blog though because I don’t know the songs. I have read them though 🙂
If you would like to post again saying which is your favourite song from school please do!
Martin I LOVE the album cover! Well done!!
I don’t know what the song’s name is but I know the words: The flowers are growing and the birds are singing.
I think it’s ‘Spring has Sprung’ or ‘New Beginnings’
Another great song, it’s a very happy song to sing!
I like the song all I want is a proper cup of coffee because it started of slow and then gets faster and faster which is fun. I also like this song because sometimes I forget what to say.
It is tricky to remember all of the words when it gets faster! It always makes everyone laugh, a great song!
Hi Miss Lee! My favourite song is also “Cup of Coffee” because it’s a fast and really helps warm up your voice, also fun song to sing! I recommend it if you’re struggling with tongue twisters.
I agree it is a very fun song to sing!
I agree with Holly, all of the songs have there own melody which makes you full of emotions. I must say my favorite warm up song is ‘a cup of coffee’ because it goes faster and faster which makes it more challenging for me every time we sing it. It is also a very fun and entertaining song to sing. I think I share a lot of enthusiasm in the singing lessons now a days as they really cheer me up and encourages me to not give up in class. It also helps me to think about the fun times in singing lessons.
Does the poster of your favorite song has to be a school song?
I am glad that singing is so special to you and makes you feel all of these things! You do sing beautifully in school and in the Chamber Choir!
Yes if it could be for your favourite school song that would be great!
I have finished.
It looks great! Thank you Ajay!
‘I wish it could be Christmas everyday’ was my favourite Xmas song.?? It was my favourite song because I sung it at St James Church with all the Quire.⛪. It’s such a nice feeling to be thinking back to all the nice times at Christmas with all the fairs that we had (a lot of fairs, at my old school I didn’t have as much.)
Oh yes I do love the Christmas songs we sing at school!
Hello Miss Lee,
My favourite song is new beginning.
New beginning is my favourite song because it is a new beginning.
Thank you for sharing Mayowa!
It sounds like the coffee song has some competition because a few people have also said this song!
I liked The song “Cup Of Coffee” because it goes to slow from fast and it like warms you up for like the next song. I also like it because it’s very fun to sing at school.
It is a fun song to sing, I agree!
I am gonna send you my picture in 5 minutes.
You should receive it.
I haven’t got it yet, did you send it?
I also like All I want is a proper cup of coffee.
It seems this is turning out to be a class favourite! Maybe we should ask Mr Rees to record the piano part so that we can all sing along!
I don’t have a favourite song because there are multiple that I enjoy listening to!
I am glad that you enjoy lots of our school songs!
Hi Miss Lee do you play the drums?
I saw a picture of you on the blog
I have played the drums. Whether I can play them well is another question!
Miss my blog is not showing up
Hi Amarissa,
If you scroll up I wrote a message on Friday explaining why.
I did read your comment though so thank for for sharing, I enjoyed reading about your favourite songs.
There’s a few others that wrote their favourite song not from school too and I can’t post their comments either as I don’t know the songs.
You could write another post with your favourite song from school if you like?
Good morning year 4,
I hope you all had a nice weekend. I loved reading your responses to this. ‘All I want is a proper cup of coffee’ is a really fun song. Just in case you can’t remember all the words, I’ve typed them below so you can sing it at home:
All I want is a proper cup of coffee
Made in a proper copper coffee pot
I may be off my dot
But I want a cup of coffee in a proper coffee pot
Iron coffee pots and tin coffee pots
They’re no use to me
If I can’t have a proper cup of coffee in a proper copper coffee pot
I’ll have a cup of tea
