The bricks, The roof, The earth below,

The solid walls of what we know,

The space we fill,The scenery,

does this make all this place can be?

The light and shade that once we sensed,

The whole community condensed

into one whole familiar space

to what extent are we this place?  

Or rather, are we hearts and minds

with bricks and mortar left behind?

The bonds we form, The friends we make,

The things we need not pack to take,

The built up skills, The lessons learned,

The wealth of our respect, Hard learned,

We are this school – both Me and You,

and if we move, the school moves too.
