Primary 1-4 have been learning about Shrove Tuesday and why we eat pancakes on this day! After writing a little bit about it in their jotters, the children then had the chance to choose some happy and healthy toppings for their pancakes! After that, they read ‘Rhino’s Don’t Eat Pancakes!’ and designed their own Wanted posters to help find the missing, pancake loving, purple rhino!
A huge thank you to our Parent Council for organising such a fun and successful Valentines Disco! Here are some pictures from the night! We don’t know who had more fun, the children or the adults!?!
Primary 1,2,3,4 were lucky enough to visit Vikingar in Largs, as part of their Viking topic! They got to see what it was like inside a Viking Longhouse, meet some of the Viking Gods and even had the chance to protect themselves in battle from a Viking warrior! Oh, and before the children went home, they had some outdoor fun in a local swing park! Here are some pictures of our trip!
This morning the Lidl Health Factor visited Calderbank! The boys and girls enjoyed having the opportunity to choose ingredients and create their own smoothie. They also exercised so that they could see how their heart rate is affected. Enjoy trying out the healthy recipes in the free cookery book and make sure to spend your voucher in a Lidl store!
In the afternoon, three of our P7s were leaders in learning by sharing some of their new knowledge and skills in First Aid with the rest of the children. Thank you Callum, Jenna and Kelsey for the insight and thank you Mr Lamb for visiting to take our First Aid Learning Club.
Calderbank and Tollbrae were lucky enough to get a special mention in the August to December Active Schools Newsletter, commending them for all their hard work! We are so proud to be one of the first schools in Scotland to achieve Gold in the Sportscotland School Sport Award!
