Burns Supper

On Sunday 25th January, it was Rabbie Burns' birthday. If he was still alive he would be 250 years old. In case you don't know who Rabbie is, he is a famous Scottish poet. We had our Burns Supper to remember him on the Wednesday 26th January. For lunch we had the traditional Scots meal - haggis, neeps and tatties! In English this is haggis turnips and potatoes. We had poems recited by a winner from each class and we had a very special visitor - the haggis, piped in by an old pupil who had left the school. This means that the haggis was brought in while somone played the bagpipes (a Scottish instrument). Someone also recited a poem called Tam o' Shanter, a poem by Rabbie Burns himself. WE ALL HAD A GREAT TIME!
