If the ECC had been open as normal we would have been learning all about a very special person this week ready to help celebrate his birthday on Monday.<\/p>\n

Do you recognise this man?<\/strong><\/h6>\n\n

His name was ROBERT BURNS and he was a very famous Scottish man who wrote lovely songs and poems.<\/p>\n

He was so famous that people in Scotland and around the world celebrate his birthday every year by doing lots of Scottish things together:)<\/p>\n

\"\"Some of the words in Scottish poems can sound a wee bit funny.<\/p>\n

Ask your child if they know what any of these Scottish words might mean and send us in their answers – right or wrong \ud83d\ude42<\/h6>\n
