(UNCRC – Article 29 – Education must develop every child’s personality, talents and abilities to the full……it must encourage respect for their parents, cultures and environment)

As part of our Robbie Burns celebrations your children have been asked by their teacher to learn a Scottish Poem.  As well as learning it in class pupils are able to take this home and practise.  We ask that they have learned this by Friday 27th January.  Three pupils will be chosen from each class to recite their poem at the Assembly on Friday 3rd February.  Pupils in Primary 4 to Primary 7 will then be chosen to represent the school at the Aberdeen City and Shire regional Burns competition on Saturday 4th March at Portlethen Academy.

We ask that your child wears tartan for our Burn’s Assembly on Friday 3rd February – this can be ‘a touch of tartan’ if you prefer.
