I Bike Survival Morning
We were joined by Robyn from I Bike who arranged a super morning of activities for the children.
The children from P1-7 went around three stations. Here they learned how to repair a puncture, name the parts of the bike and how to make a delicious smoothie by cycling a bike!
Thanks Robyn for a super morning and thank you Bike Crew for helping at the stations!
Christmas Party
On Thursday 21st December, the children had a fantastic time at the Christmas party run by Ernie the DJ.
Children enjoyed games and dancing, including the Conga and Pass the Banana. At the end Santa visited with presents for everyone. Thank you Santa for coming to see us, thank you to Parent Council for funding the party and thank you to Ernie and his helper for a super time!
Book Week Scotland
We have been involved in a range of activities this week for Book Week.
P6/7 have been busy asking staff about their favourite books when they were younger. They also joined up with P3/4/5 to watch the author Phil Earle in Author’s Live. P1/2 watched the author Kes Gray talk about the P2 book Quick Quack Quentin.
The children also had parents, grandparents and ex parents of the school reading to the children.
On Thursday the children could bring books along to read at a Book Lunch and today P3/4/5 read stories to Nursery and P1/2.
Thank you to everyone who came to the school and read to the children. Thank you to everyone for supporting this week by supplying books for the children to read at the Book Lunch and the pictures for the baby competitions, which were very enjoyable!
John King Visit
Today we had a visit from John King, Tim Peake’s Father-in-Law.
He told us all about how Tim became an astronaut and his mission to the International Space Station. The children were then allowed to ask questions and there were lots of interesting ones asked.
Mr King also gave to us some momentoes including a signed picture of Tim Peake.
Thank you very much Mr King and to Miss Perry who arranged the visit.

I Bike Breakfast
On Friday, 3rd. November, Robyn Warburton and Dr Bike from Comrie Croft came to Braco Primary to promote cycling to school.
Everyone was invited to come along, if they wished, to a Breakfast run by Sustrans. Children were also offered the chance to have their bike checked over by Dr Bike.
In class Robyn held a short Get Together about her work and how she wants the children to be more interested in promoting cycling, walking even riding scooters to school. She will be returning again to help run another event.
Thanks to Robyn and the Comrie Crew for arranging this for the school.
Cycling
All the children of the school were invited to bring along their bicycles and ride along an assault course! As the children got older, they were expected to do more challenging manoeuvres!
Everyone had a fabulous day!
Thank you to Emily Greaves who organised this event!
Family Cycle Event
On Friday 2nd. June, parents, children and staff had a lovely time cycling around the Castle Drive. The sun kept shining, which made it even better!
Afterwards, Mrs Fridge from Nursery had organised a cake stall to raise funds for Nursery to buy balance bikes.
This event was arranged by Emily Greaves the Sport Co-ordinator for the Crieff cluster of schools. Thanks to Emily and all of those who took part in the event!
