Burns Club.\u00a0 Children, families and friends from all over the Stranraer area came together to watch the winners from each school recite their Scots poetry.<\/p>\n<p>It was a very entertaining evening with so much talent and confidence on show.\u00a0 There were two categories; P3 &#8211; 5 and P6 &#8211; 7.\u00a0 Our North Rhins was well represented by the following pupils:<\/p>\n<p><strong>P3 &#8211; 5<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Jack Howie: Kirkcolm Primary &#8211; The Auld Broon Troot<\/li>\n<li>Ewan Clark: Leswalt Primary &#8211; Beasties<\/li>\n<li>Cameron McNeill: Portpatrick Primary &#8211; The Auld Broon Troot<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>P6 &#8211; 7<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alexander Clark: Leswalt Primary &#8211; The Moosie&#8217;s

that Cameron McNeill won second place in the younger category and Maya McNeill also won second place in the older category.\u00a0 Congratulations to both!\u00a0 They each received a book of the complete works of Robert Burns.<\/p>\n<p>Every child that recited had already been judged as winners in their respective schools.\u00a0 They all gave a sterling performance and they well deserved the certificate they achieved for their participation this event.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-10163 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure
