Leader: The United Nations' (UN) World Population Day is annually observed on July 11since 1987 when population reached 5 billion. In the year 1804 we reached 1 billion mark and in 2011 we have 7 billion of us humans on our planet home. Every One Counts was the theme of world population day 2010. To be counted is to become visible. This year's theme is, "Seven billion people counting each other for each one holds the key to the Power of one. The theme is a call for action and an opportunity to engage with people about what it means to live in a world of 7 billion and what they can do to ensure that everyone achieves their present and future potentials. Reader1: Do you sometimes feel lost and anonymous like one raindrop in the ocean, one petal in a flower and one flower in a garland, one leaf in a plant and one plant in a garden, one note in a chord and one chord in a song; one electron in an atom and one atom in an element? Each of these form part of a unit and complete the system. Each is defined by the Power of One. We all form part of a wonderful family in our one home - one planet earth under one sky yet still each of us is defined by the Power of One. Each of us holds the key which is inside your and me to the Power of One. (Each one will hold an object or a placard with phrases below and read their part and stand on the stage. or display on LCD the visuals ) Reader 2: There is a transcendental indefinable mysterious power that pervades everything in the universe, from the smallest particle of matter to the biggest form of life. One tree can start a forest; One star can guide a ship at sea; One candle wipes out darkness; One sunbeam lights a room One path leads to home One vote can change the destiny; One spark can start a fire; One song can spark a moment; One bird can herald a spring; Reader 3: One step must start each journey

One handclasp can lift a soul; One word can frame the goal; One touch can show you care One voice can speak with wisdom; One smile begins a friendship; One laugh will conquer gloom One life can make the difference. One gentle word, one warm smile, one act of love from someone can start a chain reaction. One person... One action.. One belief... could start something...and make a difference. It is up to me to discover how great I can be. Each of us holds the key to the power of one. Each one of us has the power within to inspire those around us. Ritual: Visuals on the Power of One - BE THE CHANGE - The girl who silenced the world http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1I6ljzaY9k&feature=related {Pause for 2 minutes and then share/ buzz in 2s on the insight or perception gained.) Reader 4: The power of one begins with believing. It starts in the heart then flows through the soul and changes the world. Each of us is chosen with a mission just for me. If I just look inside to discover my God given potential, I would be amazed at what I can do. I hold the key to the power of one that makes the difference. The Power of one is Power to do something, it is power to do anything what can I do? {All will have the words and join in the song as the choir leads. This song will be the theme song for the term/ year and will be sung in every value education class or daily before class disperses.} Prayer song: The POWER OF ONE
Theme Song by Donna Summer THE POWER OF ONE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clI1Fe4-LMo

YOU MUST ALWAYS REMEMBER Life can be a challenge Life can seem impossible It's never easy When so much Is on the line But you can make a difference With courage You can set things right A gift to dream And make dreams real Is yours and mine The power of one Begins with believing
