Calderwood Communication:
- Thank you for ensuring your child is wearing school uniform, it is important to us that all our children feel they are part of our Calderwood family. Please ensure all items of clothing including jackets and lunch boxes have your child’s name on them, as we already have a number of lost property items with no names. A reminder that black sweatshirts are not part of our uniform. We would also recommend that your child brings a jacket every day, as some children have been caught out with no jacket this week in the rain. We suggest that children keep a pair of old shoes in school to change into if they want to play on the grass when the grass is damp/ wet.
- You will find the E Days for this term here, and a note of the PE uniform they can wear to school on those days.
- Calderwood Primary has now grown to 24 clans and 555 pupils, with this in mind we would request that you try to ensure that your child comes to school prepared, including bring a snack, their packed lunch if required, water bottle and knowing how they are getting home each day. We understand emergencies and last minute changes can happen, however on a daily basis there are a large number of forgotten lunch boxes, water bottles and snacks dropped off at the office. We can cannot guarantee that these items will reach the child on time.
- Bring your own Device 2024/25: Primary 6 -7 sign up form.
- Thank you for supporting your child with our new routines for this session, you can find a copy of them here.
Calderwood Compliments:
- We have really enjoyed welcoming back all our children and clans this week, especially our 100 new Primary 1s! It has been an exciting start to Chapter 4 with our new extension opening and having a huge outdoor area to play in.
- At Calderwood it our tradition to share a first day photo of your child. Over the next week our champions will add the photos to this blog post.
