The right to be heard
As I explore the rights to which I and others are entitled, I am able to exercise these rights appropriately and accept the responsibilities that go with them. I show respect for the rights of others.

Morrisons Vouchers
The Eco Committee were busy counting the vouchers our friends and family have helped us to collect.
We have over 800 vouchers so far and would ask if anyone else has any more vouchers to donate, they should be sent to school by Friday the 8th November. Thank you.
House Technology Challenge
The children were all involved in a House challenge during Science & Technology Week. P1 and P2 children used lego to build a futuristic car and demonstrated how they could make it move using a remote control. P3-7’s challenge was to create a model which would have a moving part, powered by a motor and a solar panel.
Lanarkshire Foodbank Visit
Calderbank and Tollbrae responsible citizens visited the Foodbank to help sort the grocery donations.

It’s Good to Be Green !
On the last day of term we congratulated the children who had been consistently on green in term 1, never receiving an amber warning or red card. We are very proud of their efforts and hard work and they received a special certificate in recognition this.
We are extremely pleased with the effectiveness of the daily diaries in keeping the children on track. There has been a significant improvement in the overall behaviour within the school and we are delighted with the childrens’ willingness to strive to improve.
As you are already aware, the school offers weekly rewards in the form of our learning clubs. These are chosen by the children and offer a wide range of stimulating and enjoyable learning activities to motivate the children. However, in addition to this, we are delighted to announce that all children will be receiving the end of term, ‘Fantastic Five reward !
This end of term reward offers a longer term goal for all children to work towards. During term 1, the children were required to have 5 full green weeks to be a ‘Fantastic Five’.
We are delighted to announce that EVERY CHILD IN THE SCHOOL has been successful and will receive this reward!
This amazing achievement will be celebrated on the 25th October when all children will be enjoying a cinema afternoon. They will choose from one of the three films on offer and will receive popcorn, a hotdog and a drink to enjoy too.
Harvest Assembly
Thank you to everyone who contributed to our food collection and who came along to help us celebrate and give thanks at our Harvest Assembly. P3/4 gave a wonderful performance and shared the important message of caring and sharing.
They explained that as a Rights’ Respecting School we want to help ensure that people in our local community have the right to nutritious food. Therefore, we are delighted to be making our donation to the Lanarkshire Food Bank in Airdrie.
Our parents & friends enjoyed refreshments in our Fairtrade cafe’. We are extremely grateful to everyone who entered our raffle for a Fairtrade hamper, we raised £53 and the lucky winner was Mrs Reid !
I have experienced the energy and excitement of presenting/performing for audiences and being part of an audience for other people’s presentations/performances. EXA 1-01a
