Film Transcript

Oh, it's now in Melody. It's good. Um, in the music of rapping a bit there could be people behind over there doing sign language, and then someone could be at the front singing actual singing, the actual words, and everyone at school can learn, so that's pretty cool.

So to make a song we have to think of some things, and the first thing we have to think about when we're making a song is something called the beat. Does anyone know what the beat is? What's the beat? The melody and the beat. It makes me feel good about myself.

Oh nice. Oh yes, we got a bit of a rapper here ready to try this. Go Angela, you can do it, you can do it. You Budd, go girlfriend, go girlfriend. Um, it was to help empower the students using music, right, lyrics, using the outcomes of our school which is the four school expectation. Good job Angela, good job.

So what heartbeat is the song at? 120. 120. Remember that. Got it wrong. So we are writing—sing it perfectly, like in a kind of way pitch. I can learn, I can learn, I can learn.

Vision was, um, a song to represent our school community, to portray what our school community is all about, to represent our school expectations. I'm very proud of the work that the kids have actually done in relation to the song. It really represents our school. Never give up, man, that's so good. Try, keep trying.

Oh mate, that is—and you know the learn that from. Yep. Respect. School. Po. We respectful to others. We made it all together. Sing on the stage. Keep your hands to yourself. Yeah, keeps you safe and keeps others safe.

I'm respons and iy say I am respectful, happy, yeah and excited. Putre to strangers, respect your teachers after the school and we look after our friends. Yes, that is how you can learn.

We have a girl everything it makes me happy Mak all the kids Jo it like a little kids came sing it. Extended task into two words on each of them and you can sing it all between that whole thing. Yeah, on your chest.

The song that we're making we have to remember is not just for us in the room. Hey, it's a school song, so who's the school song for? Responsible. Respons. Now this is Emma and Braden's voice. Okay, do you feel proud? Yeah.

When we rush it we're rushing it because we can't get the right what we need. What do we overcome? What does overcome? Overcome our fear. Fear. Together.

Together I can learn. I am respectful. I am responsible. I am safe. It's a great song. I can—I am respectful. I am responsible. I am safe. I can learn. Live to learn my whole life through. I am respectful. Respect starts with me and you. I am responsible, responsible for all I do. I am safe, looking out for me and you. Learn respectful responsible say is strong we one and together we'll become clemon special school. We have fun. I respectful. I am responsible. I am I resp respons.

The beauty of this short film is how in spite certsin disabilities humans are capable of doing many things when trust and needed support are rules in life. The film portrays the changes in the lives of kids with certsin disabilities and how happy they' become and more secure they feell when given opportunities to experiment create and show they're also able to create and enjoy life.
