Reminders: Can you please ensure your child brings a water bottle to school, due to the setup of our water fountains, if a child doesn’t bring a water bottle we have to issue them with a paper/ plastic cup. Also, a gentle reminder that your child should bring a snack with them to eat at break time.
Board Games/ card games: If you have any good condition board games or card games you no longer require, could you please hand them into the office for Breakfast Club.
Update:
- We are delighted to share the exciting news that Mrs Wolfeis expecting a baby during the summer holidays. She will finish the term with us and then will take a break from Calderwood in the school year 2024/25. I know you will wish her lots of health and happiness as her family grows.
- At the end of June, we say good bye to our amazing Miss Greig, as she travels abroad to pastures new! Miss Greig, as one of our original Calderwood Champions, has been instrumental in shaping and creating Primary 1 at Calderwood, leaving a legacy behind for future clans and champions. She has also lead and implemented many initiatives within our Health and Wellbeing curriculum. Miss Greig has a caring, creative approach, always going above and beyond for the children and families in her clan. She is loved across our children, families and champions, and will be greatly missed at Calderwood! I personally would like to thank Miss Greig for her dedicated to our Calderwood family, and wish her all the luck and happiness for her adventure. Her last day at Calderwood will be 26^th
- We warmly welcome back our Miss Redmond in August, as her secondment finishes ast Springfield Primary.
