Baird Clan Connects – 22nd May 2026

This morning, Baird Clan came together to share their learning with their families and the rest of the school community through their Clan Connects.

The children told us all about The John Muir Award.  They did an amazing presentation and we were treated to some amazing singing!  We are so proud of each and every one of our learners.

Baird Clan then spent some time with their adults, sharing more of their learning from the year so far.

Thank you to all parents and carers who were able to come along to support Baird Clan this morning.

Calderwood Sports Day 2026

Thank you to everyone who came along to support the children during sports day. The weather held up in the morning with showers in the afternoon. The children were able to take part in the 8 activity stations with some classes taking part in the running races. Highlights from the children were the space hopper station and the javelin throw. The winning house for the potted sports was Fallow House. Well done! The remaining races will take place at a later date.

Calderwood Football Team

Well done to the Calderwood Football team who attended the Livingston South cluster event for the 3rd time this year. The Sun was out and the team played some excellent football. Great team work and sportsmanship was on show throughout all the games. They managed to win 5 games with some very impressive performances.

Calderwood Primary Basketball – Celebrating a Fantastic Season

Last Friday marked the close of another exciting basketball season for Calderwood Primary, and what a season it has been! Our teams have shown incredible dedication, teamwork and resilience throughout, and we are so proud of everything they have achieved.

A special congratulations goes to our P7 team, who finished an impressive 7th in all of West Lothian, and to our P6 team, who secured a brilliant 6th place finish. Competing at this level is a huge achievement, and both teams represented Calderwood with pride, determination and excellent sportsmanship at every event.

Beyond the results, this season has been filled with memorable moments—players developing their skills, building confidence, supporting one another and showing true team spirit on and off the court. It has been fantastic to watch their progress and see how much they have grown as individuals and as teams.

As we look ahead, we are incredibly excited for the future. We wish our P7 pupils every success as they move on to high school and continue their basketball journeys. We have no doubt they will go on to achieve great things and carry their love of the game with them.

We would also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this season possible:

  • Parents and carers for their continued support, transport and encouragement
  • Staff at Calderwood for giving their time to coach, organise and cheer on the teams
  • Active Schools and West Lothian Wolves for providing opportunities and running such well-organised events

Your support has made a real difference and helped create such a positive experience for our pupils.

Well done to all involved—bring on next season! 🏀

P4 Litter Pickers Make a Big Difference!

As part of our recent Sponsorship Spectacular fundraising efforts, we are delighted to recognise a fantastic contribution from some of our P4 pupils.

Rory Mackay, alongside his friends Henry, Ruairidh Murphy and Lochie McIntosh from Schiehallion Clan, took part in a brilliant litter-picking initiative around the school grounds. The boys worked together to tidy the paths and car park, showing real care for our environment and school community.

Their efforts not only helped keep Calderwood looking its best, but they also raised sponsorship funds through their hard work, an amazing achievement!

We are very proud of their teamwork, responsibility and commitment to making a positive difference. Well done, boys, and thank you for your inspiring efforts!
