Tartan clad pupils at St John's Primary were celebrating their annual Scottish Theme Week with a vibrant assembly.

Taking place on Friday, January 29, pupils from all years took to the stage at the Scots inspired display.

Prizes were also give to one pupil from each year group for their class projects.

This was the first time that parents have been invited along to the show, with a dress rehearsal taking place the previous day.

Dressed in their best tartan attire and costumes, the assembly kicked of with the P6 performance of Red Yo Yo.

A prize was presented to Rachel Ellis for her Charles Rennie MackIntosh inspired picture.

The P2 class belted out a fantastic rendition of 'Craws' complete with fun dance moves.

Bethan Kirkpatrick won best tartan design in the class competition.

P7 pupils covered the Proclaimers hit 'I'm on my Way' before Daniella Taylor sang a beautiful version of 'Loch Lomond', which had scooped her first place the class talent competition.

Brightening up the stage with their colourful costumes, the P3 class delighted the audience with 'Why Bananas are the Best'.

Luca Salmoni then snapped up his prize for his famous Scot poster, based on golfer Colin Montgomerie.

'Katie Bairdie had a Coo' was performed by the P1 classes who donned adorable costumes, with both Ray Cameron and Sophie Kineavie winning the class singing competition for their version of 'Ye Canny Shove Yer Grannie'.

P4 pupils were hilarious in their 'Haggis Song' performance complete with matching costumes, with Leo Parker winning the class prize for his Burns night poster.

Another Proclaimers hit 'A Letter from America' was performed by the P5 class with Zack Stewart winning the class competition for his Scottish sash design.

The audience was then treated to 'a wee jig' by mixed classes, which saw the talented youngsters take part in traditional Scottish dance.

All pupils and the audience enjoyed singing the 'Jeely Piece' song before John Feeney delighted the audience with a bagpipes display.

To close the show, the entire school and parents took part in singing Scottish favourite 'Auld Lang Syne', ending the show on a high.

Headteacher Anne Marie Gordon said: "Our Scottish assembly is the accumulation of the learning the children have experienced throughout the week.

"It highlights the importance of our Scottish culture and traditions and encourages the children to celebrate the life of Robert Burns.

"We have such supportive parents who love celebrating their children's success and our annual Scottish assembly provides a perfect platform to do this.

"St John's has many strong partnerships and we are delighted that Mr John Feeney can celebrate with us today by finishing our assembly in style."

We spoke to some of the talented pupils about what they thought of their Scottish Themed Week and assembly.

Max McLaughlin, P3 said: "We did a story 'my wee dug' where we used Scottish words like 'wee fattie' to describe the dog. We were also practising our song all week and I really liked wearing my tartan shirt."

David McGuire, P4 said: "I liked singing 'Auld Lang Syne' as there are good memories about that song. Our class was one of the best as our teacher is a really good singer. One of my favourite Scots dishes is neeps and tatties which is a really traditional."

Kyle Crookshank, P7 said: "We were writing a paragraph about a celebrity but in Scots, so we learned lots of different words like 'auld'. My favourite part of the show was singing with the whole school at the end."

Sarah Li, P5 said: "I really enjoyed the bagpipes. We've been learning some Scottish words and wrote a wee daft Scots tale with a partner. Mine was about a bubbly-jock, which is a turkey, and a dog who went to a bridge."

Rachel Ellis, P6 said: "I was really excited about winning my prize for the best tartan design, it's the first time I've won it. The show was amazing, I liked the dancing. We've been practising our song all week and learning about Scottish poems and stories."
