<\/a>As Burn\u2019s Day approaches, we are learning about Robert Burns and Scottish culture. The children have been amazed to learn that Robert Burns has visited Annan and some may even be dragging you to the local chip shop to see the plaque on the wall that tells us this.<\/p>\n

To prepare for our Burn\u2019s celebrations, or as one of the children called it \u201cOur Tartan Party\u201d, we have been learning\u00a0\u00a0\u201cYe Cannae Shove Yer Granny Aff the Bus\u201d and \u201cThree Craws\u201d which we will perform next week. The afternoon children will celebrate on Tuesday with P1, P2 and P3\/2. The morning children will have their celebration on Wednesday with P4 and P5. If possible, it would be great if the children could wear a little tartan to help us all join in the spirit of the event.<\/p>\n

Along with oatcakes, cheese and Irn Bru\u00a0the children\u00a0thought that some shortbread would be a tasty addition to our \u201cBurn\u2019s Supper\u201d. Miss Wilson has spoken to the kind ladies in the kitchen and they will be making some for us. However, we are also baking shortbread ourselves: as you can see from the photos, some of the children are demonstrating very good skills. Mrs. Lindsay, Mrs. Hamilton and Miss Wilson were lucky enough to be chosen as \u201ctasters\u201d and they were very impressed with our baking.<\/p>\n
