Forres pupils sing “The Wonders we have chosen”

Forres Preparatory School

“We are committed to providing a balanced and dynamic education for every child, with the belief that children are unique and that individual minds learn differently,” says Kim van der Hoven, Head of Forres Preparatory School in Rondebosch, one of the southern suburbs of Cape Town, South Africa.

Rondebosch shares its western border with the Table Mountain National Park and seeing that Table Mountain is one of the Official New7Wonders of Nature, the school choir is ideally situated to sing The New7Wonders Hymn.

The Wonders we have chosen
No matter where we come from
No matter where we’re living
These are the Wonders of our times
Seven Wonders
The Seven Wonders of the World

The Wonders we have chosen
No matter where we come from
The Wonders of emotions
That make us proud and happy
The Seven Wonders
The Seven Wonders of the World

The New7Wonders Hymn
