Our troop is made up of students all from the same Catholic School and this week was Catholic School’s Week. The week is full of many fun events for the kids, including the annual Talent Show.
This year, about 85% of our troop participated in the talent show in one act or another. We had some beautiful piano solos and duets, and a few wonderful dances including a ballet solo. But, new and special this year, Co-Leader C. coordinated with the teacher in charge of the talent show to have a “Girl Scout Troop” act as the grand finale for the entire talent show. And boy-o-boy it did not disappoint.
The act was a skit-dance, with an ANTI-BULLYING theme, done to Katy Perry’s “Roar”. There was a part for anyone interested in participating:
DAISIES got to dance around, “floating like butterflies”.
BROWNIES got to take care of the bullies,
and JUNIORS got to ROAR!!
We are SOOOO proud of our girls! They continue to regularly amaze us!
Special thanks to the girls who volunteered to participate, Co-Leader C. and Holy Family Catholic School for ALWAYS supporting and accommodating our troop!
Katy Perry – Roar
I used to bite my tongue and hold my breath
Scared to rock the boat and make a mess
So I sat quietly, agreed politely
I guess that I forgot I had a choice
I let you push me past the breaking point
I stood for nothing, so I fell for everything
You held me down, but I got up
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, your hear that sound
Like thunder, gonna shake your ground
You held me down, but I got up
Get ready cause I’ve had enough
I see it all, I see it now
[Chorus]
I got the eye of the tiger, the fighter, dancing through the fire
Cause I am a champion and you’re gonna hear me ROAR
Louder, louder than a lion
Cause I am a champion and you’re gonna hear me ROAR
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You’re gonna hear me roar
