Schoolovision 2012


Blogs are so easy to make, sometimes people start a new blog every year, instead of using an archive.
Even though this individual blog is technically abandoned, the project is still going on. They set up a new website every year, schoolovision 2013, schoolovision 2014, etc.
These schools record a song together and have a contest over who is the best in Europe.
