It commemorates the life of Robert Burns, who was born on January 25, 1759. The day also celebrates Burns' contribution to Scottish culture and today our Pre-School and I3 children have been learning about Scottish traditions! On Friday morning, the Pre-School children made porridge and Scottish shortbread and in the afternoon had a visit from Mrs Mulgrew who brought in haggis, tatties and neeps for them to try. They finished the day off by having a go at Scottish dancing! In Literacy, the I3 pupils looked into the life of Roberts Burns and also learnt the Selkirk Grace! In the afternoon, like the Pre-School children, I3 tried haggis, tatties and neeps, before learning some Scottish Dancing! > 2/2 In Literacy, [@KGJS\_](https://twitter.com/KGJS_?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) I3 pupils looked into the life of Robert Burns and also learnt the Selkirk Grace!
