Primary 7 put on a “Scots Performance” for parents on Tuesday 31st January, as part of celebrations for Burn Night.
Parents listened to Scottish songs, old and new and poems. They were treated to a display of highland dancing and heard scottish music played by violins, flutes and saxophones. Groups of pupils recited scottish poems written by Robert Burns himself, and also more modern poets. Everyone enjoyed the very entertaining “Haggis Dance”. The performance was brought to a dramatic close by a drumming display by Scott Dingwall.
£92 was donated by parents towards a collection for a local charity. P7 pupils will decide shortly which charity to donate it to. Among those that they may choose from are Huntly Area Cancer Support Group, GRAIN and Friends of Jubilee Hospital.
The P7s wil repeat the performance on Wednesday at the Upper Stages assembly.
Many thanks to everyone involved in making the performance a success!
