"'!" , r, -· "BURNS CHRONICLE" ADVERTISER "Long Life to thy fame and peace to thy soul, Rob Bums! When I want to express a sentiment which I feel strongly, I find the phrase in Shakespeare--or t_hee." Thus wrote Sir Walter Scott in his Journal. And to-day, as always, Burns's countrymen find in his songs the expression of their deepest feelings and beliefs. A teacher's work is never more worthwhile than when he introduces the next generation tO this part of our inheritance. For more than seventy years the Burns Federation has helped such work. Now, along with McDougall's, it has prepared The Burns Fedt11'iition Song Book especially for use in schools. This contains twenty songs, the texts of which have been taken from the best sources and scrupulously edited, with glossaries and notes on pronunciation. Some of the tunes are those to which, Burns wrote his words, and others are ones which have become traditionally associated with them. They are all suited to the range of a child's voice, and the accompaniments are straight­ forward and musically satisfying. The Burns Fedt11'ation Song Book is published in two torms: the Pupils' Edition, with staff and sol-fa notation, and the Piano Edition. Each book has the same full glossaries and phonetic pronun!tlations0 together with an introductory note on.Pronuncia­ tion by David D.

When something is written down in a manuscript or a book, there is a standard against which other versions can be compared or corrected. Since the emergence of writing, political, social and religious institutions have privileged written records over oral memory and tradition. This has had a huge influence on the survival and evolution of the Scots language. Having lost its role as a contemporary written language in the 17th century, Scots continued to thrive as a spoken tung. This led to Scots often being associated with aspects of culture that were not sanctioned by authority, or explicitly dissident. To gie tung or ‘raise your voice’ could be seen as anti-authority, an expression of cultural resistance and human freedom. Consequently, people were told to curb or haud their tungs. And the forms of punishment administered by local courts included restraining the tongue, as for example with a Scold’s Bridle.

  • Trinity Academy Parent Update Dec 2018
    Trinity Academy Wave 4 Replacement Project Update for Parents Background The focus of the Wave 4 Infrastructure Investment Programme is the replacement of seven secondary schools throughout the city which have not benefitted from any investment through the PPP1, PPP2 or Wave 3 investment programmes. The schools are Balerno High School, Castlebrae High School, Currie High School, Leith Academy, Liberton High School, Trinity Academy and Wester Hailes Education Centre (WHEC). In a report to the Education, Children and Families Committee on the 22 May 2018 the following criteria were noted as being those on which future infrastructure investment in secondary schools would be prioritised through the Wave 4 programme: Any existing building structure identified as having a short life expectancy would be top priority. Any existing building where core facilities do not support the necessary size of the expected future school roll would be a high priority. Priority for any remaining schools would be determined based on the combined condition and suitability scores. A further report to the Education, Children and Families Committee on 21 June 2018 provided the results of the prioritisation process and the Committee approved the following recommendations to: Agree that the current wave 4 capital allocation of £25m is aligned to delivery of the Castlebrae High School replacement and Bangholm sports facility (Trinity Academy) projects. Agree that a report is submitted to the Finance and Resources Committee which will include details of the capital and revenue implications of proceeding with the delivery of the Castlebrae High School replacement and Bangholm sports facility (Trinity Academy) projects. Agree that the report to Finance and Resources Committee also includes detailed business cases for all of the other projects identified so that consideration can be given to how these projects could be funded in the future.
