Humans of Bridge of Earn Project

This is the latest in a series of films called "Humans of Bridge of Earn".  The project, which has been running last term and this term, aims to gather small and interesting stories from our local community, filming people telling their stories and so helping to bridge the gap between the younger and older generations.  This is John's Story.

Take a look at all the films at our school YouTube channel:

Our P6 "Humans of Bridge of Earn" Assembly

On Friday 11th November P6 presented their class assembly to the school in the morning and to parents/carers in the afternoon.  It was fantastic to hear such great feedback about the event, especially considering the huge efforts made by the children to find Humans of Bridge of Earn to interview, plan and make their films, plan the assembly and practice.  We all hope you enjoyed it and if you would like to come to our Community Share Day at The Institute on Thursday 24th November (1-2pm or 2-3pm), it would be great to see as many of you their as possible.
