FAQs

Can additional adult tickets be purchased?

Rookie Rockstars is a whole school event and is open for all families with pupils from P1-P7 to attend. At this moment, one adult ticket per family can be purchased. This is to ensure that all families in the school have the opportunity to attend the concert. The staff of Rookie Rockstars will host the concert and normally only hold 1 concert event. To accommodate the size of our school, they have kindly agreed to hold 2 concerts. After the 10th May, we will look at the number of tickets that have been purchased and pupils performing in the concert across the two nights. We will then be able to identify available spaces against the capacity of the arena. Any additional tickets will be released after 10th May. Communication will be made by the school regarding the arrangements for this. We appreciate you support with this.

 

Pipe Band Gala Day Celebration

As part of our East Calder Gala Celebrations, Housebuilder Robertson Homes has organised for the Glencorse Pipe Band to attend Calderwood Primary School. On Friday 19th May, the band will play a Beat Retreat in our school playground as the pupils are collected from school for the holiday weekend. A Beat Retreat denotes the end of the working day and marks the end of another week of hard work by all of our pupils. The band will begin to play at 11:55am and continue until 12:15pm.

Robertson Homes is sponsoring the pipe bands which will be playing at the East Calder Gala Day on 10th June. Robertson wanted to give all our pupils, staff, parents and carers a sneak preview of what to expect by organising this special event for us. Calderwood Primary is thankful for this exciting opportunity.

Roe House Party Celebrations

On Friday 21st April, Roe House had their term 3 celebration. The pupils hosted their own pyjama party that included party games, hot chocolate and treats! The pupils enjoyed playing musical statues and corners as a house. Well done to Roe for your hard work in term 3.
