The whole school had an afternoon of Burns celebrations last Friday (24th January). We started with a Burns lunch. Angus Lapslie from Strathallan School piped in the haggis, which was addressed by Sean, Sarah and Connor. The pupils all then enjoyed an excellent lunch of haggis or kilted sausages prepared by Mrs Lyttle. After a break for a run around, we all met again in the hall to hear Scots poems read by children from each class. Mr Blair from Bridge of Earn then spoke to the children about Burns and his life.

Everyone then enjoyed shortbread cooked by P1/2 with the help of Lindsay Galloway and Ashley Sinclair, and cloutie dumpling home cooked by Lindsay Galloway.

The afternoon was rounded off by an excellent version of the Gruffalo’s Wean read by Mrs Findlay.
