Tables set, Saltire hanging, bagpipes piping! It was time for Leswalt’s annual Burns Supper! The whole school sat down to enjoy some haggis neeps and tatties and celebrate the work of Burns and celebrate Scotland! \ud83c\udf7d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Murray, our super P7, was a very able and organised chairperson who welcomed everybody to the Supper and ensured the proceedings ran smoothly. Ben, read the Selkirk Grace before P1 Leo and P7 Colin escorted the Haggis from the kitchen into the dinner hall to the sound of some bagpipes playing in the background. Colin, very confidently and professionally then addressed the haggis which signalled it was time to eat! Pupils sat down to a full haggis supper; haggis, neeps and tatties. Some enjoyed sausages and pizza instead.\ud83c\udf55\ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

Afterwards, we enjoyed some poetry recitations from Ellis (P1), Phoebe (P2) James (P3). P1-3 entertained us with\u00a0their song ‘Ye Cany Shove Yer Granny’ \ud83d\udc75\ud83d\ude8c<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Colin and Ben followed with an amusing toast to our brilliant P7 Lassies Rachael and Rebecca and Rebecca followed with quite a witty reply. Lily (P5) and Eilidh (P4) recited their poems with great enthusiasm.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our fantastic P7 James gave us a chuckle with his ‘Toast to Leswalt School’ and Murray got quite the laugh with his final Vote of Thanks. P4-7 entertained with their song ‘Marie’s wedding’ \ud83d\udc70<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The company sang \u2018Auld Lang Syne\u2019 at the end of a highly successful and entertaining Burns Supper at Leswalt Primary. A huge well done to our fantastic P7’s for their hard work to plan and deliver such a fantastic Burns Supper!\ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n
