Burns Suppers and a that!

Last year at this time, I was privileged to be asked to a Burns Supper organised by the young folk in a primary school. It was an inspiring event with dancing -traditional and modern, speeches, songs and a great community feeling as young and old came together. If, like me you have not been inside our schools for many a year and perhaps only know what you read in the press about our young people, take any chance you can get to support your local school and young people and find out what really goes on. The creativity and energy that goes into the curriculum work and these special events on the calendar which build knowledge and pride in the past and future of this land of Scotland is inspiring. Go see them and support them-the young people of Scotland- after all they are Scotland's future!
