25th January 2015 saw Busby hold its very first Burns Supper Event, held in the school for invited guests, parents and members of the wider Busby Family.\u00a0 The event was a huge success, with all attendees enjoying excellent catering, hospitality and entertainment.\u00a0 A wealth of positive comments were paid about the evening and all the pupils that participated in making the evening such a success were an absolute credit to themselves and the school.<\/p>\n

The whole event was prepared and presented by the children, in partnership with members of staff and representatives of Hotel and Catering Services.\u00a0 All three traditional\u00a0courses were freshly prepared by pupils, working alongside catering staff from Busby and Williamwood.<\/p>\n

The school dining hall was transformed into a banqueting space and decorated in traditional style, whilst displaying work by our younger pupils.\u00a0 The seventy plus guests seated for dinner were delighted with their surroundings.<\/p>\n

A selection of our senior pupils took on hospitality roles, ensuring a high quality service for our guests.\u00a0 They were highly organised and professional when serving and also conversed well with those they were serving.\u00a0 Their input helped to ensure all present had the best experience possible.<\/p>\n

All the speeches and performances on the evening were conducted by pupils, all of whom had spent considerable time creating and practising for their big performance.\u00a0 The quality on display certainly ensured that those present were wholly entertained, whilst still enjoying the traditional Burns Night traditions.<\/p>\n

For Busby Primary School and its pupils this certainly will be a night to remember and we would like to thank everyone who played a part in this special occasion.<\/p>\n
