31 January 08 - 14:01Robert Burns Assembly
Today was our Burns assembly. It was a bit late because we go to college on Friday’s, so we had to do it today when we had time. We sang lots of Burns songs and poems such as; A Red, Red Rose, To a Mouse, Rantin Rovin Robin and many more. To be precise we did 4 songs and 7 poems. In the assembly I was a Narrator. A boy from our class played as Robert Burns. He was quite good and remembered all of his parts even though he only got told them on Tuesday. For our songs one of our Teachers played the keyboard. I did the poem called, ‘The Deil’s Awa Wi’ Th’ Exciseman. During some of the speeches made by the narrators and me, the boy playing as Rabbie acted out what the narrators were speaking, such as when To A Mouse was being explained He acted as if he turned up a mouse in its house and pretended to write the poem. It went really well and most of Teachers commented. The Teacher who played the keyboard for us got a box of chocolates. The assembly lasted about 45 minutes and was quite tiring.
That’s all for now until next time BBYYEE! (more)
