A number of pupils from Albyn School have achieved outstanding success at the prestigious Burns Federation North East Scotland Competition, bringing home multiple trophies and medals, and making their school proud.
The annual competition, which celebrates Scottish culture, took place last weekend at Portlethen Academy, and saw talented young competitors from schools across the region showcase their skills in recitation, singing and instrumental performances. We send a huge congratulations to:
- Angus D (S1) - 1st place for instrumental (senior school)
- Sabi B (S4) - 3rd place for verse (senior school)
- Harper L (P6) - 1st place chanter (primary school)
- Miranda S (P5) - 1st place P4/5 singing and best overall Burns Musician in NE Scotland.
Faculty Head of Creative Arts, Laura Sinclair, expressed her immense pride in the pupils’ achievements, stating: “We are unbelievably proud of them for representing Albyn and showing the utmost confidence performing in the competition and auditorium at Portlethen Academy.”
Their achievements not only highlight their individual talents but also reflect our commitment to promoting Scottish culture and the arts.
The pupils will now have the opportunity to build on their success, with some being invited to perform at other events in Aberdeen in the near future. Angus, Harper and Miranda also progress to their respective national finals taking place later in the year and we wish them all the best!
