Last night Lucy Beth gave a wonderful performance at the Stonehaven wee Gaitherin Poetry Festival event at Number 44. Please consider giving this young woman your support for her efforts to preserve the Doric language and encouraging a new generation to fully appreciate Scottish culture.

The wee Gaitherin continues over this weekend (September 3-6, 2026), well worth going along. Schedule in the comments.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿♥

Our Burns & Scottish Poetry/Music Recital event, part of Stonehaven Folk Festival, on Saturday morning was a great success!

A talent filled happy morning was spent at the British Legion as eleven enthusiastic youngsters celebrated our Scottish culture by reciting poetry, dancing and singing. Our performers ranged in age from five to fourteen. We should all be so proud of them!

From youngest to eldest...

Mitchell Onu (5), Hillside.
Eryn Adie (9), Arduthie & Lauren Kate Dance School.
Mariia Shatnaya (9), Arduthie.
Chizaram Onu (9), Hillside.
Kirsten Cameron (10), Dunnottar.
Louisa Kinross (11), Dunnottar.
Marvel Onu ( 11), Hillside.
Amelia Reynolds (11), Kemnay & Lauren Kate Dance School.
Ariella Nwanze (11), Arduthie.
Charlotte Cowling (13), Mackie Academy.
Harris Cameron (14), Mackie Academy.

They each received a memento kindly donated by Stonehaven Men's Shed.

Watch this space for details of our next event.

Rabbie Burns stood for social justice and inclusion. The Scots will not be told who they can love and who doesn’t belong.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏳️‍🌈💜

Following last year's brilliant first event at the world renowned Stonehaven Folk Festival, we are again inviting children and young adults to help us celebrate Scottish culture by reading a Scottish poem or singing or playing a piece of Scottish music.

Our session will take place in the British Legion Hall on Saturday July 11th at 10am. It's not a competition, it doesn't have to be perfect, it's all for fun and a small memento.

Everyone is welcome to step up onto the stage, or just come along to encourage our young performers.

Contact Susan or Donald or just turn up a few minutes beforehand on the day to let us know what you'd like to perform.

Reminder that this coming Wednesday, June 3rd at 7.30pm in the Cowie Bar at the Recreation Ground, our local Burns club is hosting our Annual General Meeting.

This probably sounds boring but we’ll try to make it interesting by getting the admin stuff out of the way quickly and entertaining you with some history of Rabbie Burns family here in this beautiful corner of Scotland and what we do to help keep it alive for you and future generations.

Here is an opportunity to volunteer to celebrate and perpetuate Scottish Culture - we’d love to invite you to join our committee (sorry, another boring word) to contribute your ideas to help us.

Hope to meet some of you on Wednesday.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
