Our clans took part in a Nativity competition hosted by our Primary 1 clans. Well done to both pupils whose designs have been picked to be the background to the Nativity set. We can’t wait to see your artwork in the performance. We know our Primary 1 clans will love it!

Be an Author Competition
As part of our Book Week Scotland Celebrations, Calderwood took part in a ‘Be an Author Competition.’ This involved all pupils writing a narrative story about a quest or adventure. Each clan nominated a winner for their clan that would go through the final. All entries for the final were judged by an author called Linda Erskine. Well done to all of our clan finalists!
A massive congratulations to our P1-3 winner, P4-5 winner and P6-7 winner. All pupils have received a voucher to spend at Waterstones. Enjoy your celebrations! We are all so proud of your achievement!
