Finding our way in Schiehallion

Schiehallion have had an excellent first 2 weeks settling back into Calderwood life after our summer holidays. We have been very welcoming to the new pupils and champions who are now in our clan.

We have really enjoyed playing Getting to Know You games, as well beginning our PE lessons. We have also been learning about measure and forces, making posters, which you can see below.

This week we held our pupil council elections. We discussed what would make a good pupil council representative, and then a number of the students campaigned for election. This included making posters and making a speech to the rest of the clan

‘Our Clan is a Family’- Leven

Leven clan have had a fantastic start to P4, we have been working hard getting to know one another and building our classroom community! We took part in a number of activities that allowed us to express ourselves and work co-operatively.

We explored the story “Our Class is a Family” and took part in a meaningful discussion about how we can make our clan a supportive and positive environment for all learners. We touched on important topics such as respect, growth mindset and kindness.

Leven clan also helped Mrs Bates lead our connects this week, where they introduced everyone to our first value ‘Belonging’. They presented what belonging meant to them and how they belong Calderwood.
