School Choir perform in Glasgow
On Saturday 20th January, our school choir were invited to attend and perform at the Glasgow and District Wreath Laying Ceremony in George Square, Glasgow. Mrs McNulty with P6 and P7 choir members performed Burns and Scots pieces at Glasgow City Chambers, at the wreath laying ceremony at the Burns monument in George Square and then again at The Merchants House in George Square. In the absence of a piper, the children were even asked to sing as the procession walked through George Square which the children were delighted to do!
It was a wonderful day, and we were all delighted and honoured to have been invited to be part of it! A huge thank you to Mrs Johnstone and Mr Burns for their help and support on the day!
School Choir Event Sat 20th Jan
Our school choir have been kindly invited to perform in George Square in Glasgow next Saturday as part of a Robert Burns memorial event in the run up to Burn’s birthday.
They will not only be singing at the laying of wreaths at Robert Burns statue in George Square but also at City Chambers and then The Merchants House. What a prestigious event and fabulous opportunity for our talented young people!
The Jean Armour Burns Trust who are organising the event, are kindly funding our transport costs and are also providing the lunch for the children next Saturday too.
At the organisers request, spaces are limited so I can only offer this opportunity to P6 and P7 choir members. Letters will be sent home on Monday with consent slips and information about bus times and what chidlren will be required to wear and bring.
The children were informed of this today so I wanted to let families know to give prior warning.
We are very much looking forward to being part of this event and will meet at various times during the school day next week and indeed at Monday’s rehearsal to prepare for this.
Kind regards,
Mrs McNulty
