Burns Day Scots Poem Competition

Primary 6 pupils organised a Scots Poetry competition for Burns day. Each class was given a poem to recite and pupils were given the chance to represent their class in a whole school competition on TEAMS. Our overall winners are being sent forward to the Rotary Club Burns poetry competition.

The winners of the competition were Jamie and Shayan from Primary 6, with a fantastic presentation of A Dug, A Dug by Bill Keys.

Primary 6 also created a learning choice board for classes with activities and competitions to do over Burns Week. Classes were to colour each box to keep track of  completed activities. The more they completed the more points they got. The class who finished with the most points was given a prize.

We held a Burns assembly on 25th January to celebrate the life and poems of Robert Burns.  We really enjoyed having the responsibility of planning for the whole school.
