Scots poetry winners

All this hard work was celebrated at a prize giving assembly in school.  Parents were invited along and were also entertained by some singing.  Primary 5-7 sang “Flower of Scotland” to open the proceedings, then followed this up later with “Caledonia”.  The afternoon concluded with P1-4 giving it their all by singing “Let it go” from the film “Frozen” – all in Scots.  This proved to be very entertaining, with the young pupils displaying real attitude and enthusiasm to ensure all the guests left school that day with a smile on their face.
