The last Burns Lunch in the \u2018old\u2019 Barrhead High School!<\/p>\n

Once again the pupils and staff of Barrhead came together to celebrate the bard\u2019s birthday with our very own Burn\u2019s lunch. The Burns\u2019 lunch has become a yearly event in the Barrhead calendar where Barrhead pupils celebrate Burns\u2019 birthday by singing, eating and making speeches in time honoured fashion.<\/p>\n

This year the Burns\u2019 lunch was extremely significant given that it is the last year in the, soon to be, old, Barrhead High School. We were lucky enough to welcome Charlie Newlands, a Burns\u2019 enthusiast and, as it turns out, historian, performer and musician\u2026among many other talents, to entertain the senior canteen with his wit and knowledge of the great man.<\/p>\n

Charlie\u2019s immortal memory was one to remember, as were the speeches by our very own Scott Robertson and Lauren Kelly who entertained the canteen with their comical observations of our own lads and lassies! Neither the pupils nor the teachers escaped their attention!<\/p>\n

The whole event was a tribute to the pupils and staff of the school who ate and sang and enjoyed a rare moment in honour of one of our best. Thanks to all who took part and supported the event. I think that Burns himself would have approved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
