Primary Burns Nationals 2026

Leave a comment
On Saturday 13th June, we attended the Primary National Burns Competition, held at Clydeview Academy in Gourock.
We had 4 entries in this competition, Daisy M and Stewart Y were representing Ayrshire in the P4/5 verse speaking competition, Lexi B was representing Ayrshire in the P4/5 singing competition and our school choir was representing Ayrshire in the choral competition.
Our choir entries were played in the main hall for everyone to see throughout the day. We were very excited to see ourselves on the big screen!
We are delighted to share that all of our children received wonderful scores and feedback from the judges and on top of that, our school choir were awarded 3rd place and Daisy M was awarded 1st place (out of the whole of Scotland!!!) for her rendition of Tam Glen by Robert Burns. Our young people were competing against other regions such as Dumfries and Galloway, Lanarkshire, Fife, Edinburgh, Renfrewshire, Scottish Borders, Glasgow and Grampian.
Our scores in the verse speaking competition, which Daisy and Stewart contributed to, led to Ayrshire winning the trophy for best overall verse speaking category on the day too.
What an amazing achievement for our young people and brilliant awards to bring home to Ayrshire!
