Pupils and parents/carers of P7 pupils are invited to attend an introductory meeting here in Calderhead High School on Tuesday, 20 November 2018 from 5:30 – 8:00 pm.
The transition of children from Primary to Secondary school is a major experience for both pupils and their families and the involvement of Parents/Carers is acknowledged as central to the smooth transfer of children from Primary to Secondary school.

We have been delighted to welcome Primary 7 pupils to the school over the last few weeks as part of our initial transition process. Pupils have participated in classes in Art, English, Maths, Music, Modern Languages, PE and Science and learned more about Pupil Support at Calderhead High School. Senior pupils (and MVP Mentors) Jay Casserly, Caitlin Smith and Callum Mathieson talked about the Mentors in Violence Prevention scheme in school and how we promote positive relationships at Calderhead. Pupils also got a chance to visit the school Library.
Many of the pupils come from our four feeder primaries and we have been impressed by their excellent behaviour and eagerness to become part of the Calderhead High School community.
Parents, carers and families also had an opportunity to visit the school on the evening of Tuesday, 21 November and were able to tour the classrooms, gyms, social areas and library and speak to staff. Thank you to our senior pupils who acted as guides.
School will start again on Thursday 17th August at 8.55am.
We look forward to welcoming everyone back, especially our new first year pupils. Starting High School can be daunting – the Parenting Across Scotland website gives some great tips on how you can help your child make a successful transition from primary school.
