  • Our clans have all enjoyed their Christmas Parties over the past two weeks. Thank you to the Parent Council for providing our Christmas Party food and snacks, and for organising a visit and present from Santa and Mrs Claus for our Primary 1 and 2 clans.
  • A huge well done to our Primary 2-7 clans who entertained our community at Christmas Around the World last Friday.

  • Our Primary 4 clans held their own Christmas Fayre this week, selling items they designed and create as part of their interdisciplinary learning.

It’s hard to believe that we have had our third Christmas together at Calderwood, time really does fly. As a community, we have achieved so much together in such a short space of time and I am forever grateful to our champions, for all they do, to make a difference for our children. Thank you to our families and the community for your continued support, it is greatly appreciated. I hope you all enjoy the holiday period and I can’t wait to see where 2024 takes us!
