Finland: Hi And Ho - We Plant Trees!

Eno Primary School represents Finland in Schoolovision 2010. Our song is called Hi And Ho - We Plant Trees!. It is about the importance of tree planting and peace. This song is also a title song for a global ENO Project that was founded at Eno Primary School in 2000. Our next tree planting day will take place 21st of May 2010.
You can learn some Finnish in the chorus part and welcome to download sheet music, lyrics and illustrated movements for the song here! Special thanks to singers, teachers in the band, Santeri on drums and our "Paganini" in violin, Joonas. "Grow with them and learn to live in peace and harmony!"

Hi And Ho - We Plant Trees! by Eno Elementary, Finland

We need to save the forest
It has to be our goal.
For many different species
It plays a major role

We want to have some action
Save life with our own way.
It gives us satisfaction
We celebrate today:

Hi and ho - we plant trees
For environment and peace!

North and South, East and West
Trees will grow: high and low.

Hi and ho - we plant trees
Want to see a lot of green!

Grow with them and learn to live
In peace and harmony.
