Form 7 Mark the End of Mocks with Burns Night Celebration
20th January 2026
Form 7 students celebrated the end of their mock exams in true Scottish style with a vibrant Burns Night celebration.
The evening brought all the tradition and ceremony of a classic Burns Supper. A piper led the procession as the haggis was carried into the Barraclough Dining Hall, followed by Robert Burns’ famous ‘Address to a Haggis‘ to enthusiastic applause.
Students then enjoyed a lively ceilidh, complete with a live band and plenty of energetic Scottish dancing, creating a warm and joyful atmosphere to mark the end of a demanding exam period.
A fantastic evening of culture, camaraderie, and well‑earned fun.
