THE MORE THE MERRIER
An ISS Elementary School Performing Arts Play
On Friday, 9th December, 2016, all ISS elementary school students will participate in a Performing Arts concert, “The More the Merrier”. This year the students will be performing an original play written by a group of Grade 4 and 5 students who took part in the "Script Writing and Stage Production" ECA. The play includes singing, dancing, acting, instrument playing and even an original song! Students are leading all aspects of the show including set, light and sound design, costumes and backstage support. This production will take place at the Anglo Chinese School, 121 Dover Rd.
'Count on Me' is the finale song for our show. Please practice at home if you'd like to!

Friendship is something you feel inside
You know in your heart that you need to be kind
Friendship is when we look out for each other
Lend a hand to your sister or your brother
Friends help friends,
Let’s be friends
No one’s left out
If everybody helps
Friends help friends,

Side by side is how we stand
If someone needs help, then we lend a hand
We don’t fight we work together
If someone’s in need we help each other

When you play, don’t forget to be fair
You can have a group or play in a pair
Friends can be found – everywhere
