Kurittula school is very happy to be able to represent Finland in the Schoolovision 2023 contest! Our song this year is a famous Finnish children's song: Viidakkolaulu (The Jungle Song). We don't have jungles in Finland, so it's a very exciting world for us. Welcome to our jungle!
Viidakkolaulu / The Jungle Song
(Composition Jussi Rasinkangas, Lyrics Juhani Konola, Lyrics in English Pauliina Kaksonen)

Where a wanderer will be followed by eyes, who will dare to arrive.
You won’t be left alone in the jungle, your steps will be heard.
A hundred eyes over there following you, steps all around you.
Bakela ee matabele pelite.
The sun sets behind the woods, every twig has fingers.
Touching the nightly wanderer. No need to hurry anymore.
A hundred eyes over there following you, steps all around you.
Bakela ee matabele pelite.
Howling from a distance, something flying by.
The jungle is crying, whining, the morning seems so far away.
A hundred eyes over there following you, steps all around you.
Bakela ee matabele pelite.
