AULD LANG SYNE
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne!
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
And there’s a hand, my trusty fiere,
And gie’s a hand o’ thine,
And we’ll take a right guid willie-waught
For auld lang syne!
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

To start the actual Burns assembly we told the school when he was born and what he did for a living and how he lived when he was younger and also about his family. Me and Jennifer presented the activities. The first thing was Tae a Mouse (the poem) and then Michaela, Grace , Hannah and Aria played Gairsay on their Fiddles.After that We spoke the poem address to a Haggis Afterwards Jennifer introduced Madison doing her highland dancing. Madison did the Highland Fling and The Sword Dance.To finish off we sung Auld Lang Syne and on the last two lines the whole school joined in and held hands. I hope everyone enjoyed it and im looking forward to another assembly like this one. Sofia

He wrote poems and songs and he was inspired by nature. whenever he had spare time he wrote down ideas for his songs and poems. Then we did a poem called 'to a mouse' some of the class did the poem. When the poem was done Michaela Grace Hannah and Aria played a song on the fiddle called 'Gairsay' it was a beautiful song and they are all really good at playing the fiddle. Then me and Sofia did a bit more reading. Then the rest of the class did a poem called 'to a haggis' afterwards Madison did some highland dancing she was really good at it she did two types of dancing they were called 'the highland fling and 'the sword dance' To finish of Me and MR Duncan played Auld Lang Syne on the fiddle and Mr Duncan played it on the piano once we were finished the whole class joined in and sung it then the whole school joined in and crossed there arms.
