Mrs Morrison and Mrs Robertson were so proud of our super basketball team ‘Calderwood Knicks’ when they played in the silver playoffs on Friday 26th May. From only forming our teams in October, to now making it into the playoffs, is a huge achievement that they should be proud off. We came 6th in the silver league and got in some tremendous baskets – even some of the professional players were impressed! Well done to all of you, we cannot wait to see how Calderwood basketball teams develop next year!
We are excited to hold our second annual sports day on Wednesday 24th May (weather permitting). If the event needs to be cancelled, we will groupcall you on Wednesday morning to inform you.
This event will have three parts:
Families are invited along to the event, we would request that you limit guests to two adults per family. There will be an allocated area on the field and on the grass verge between the amphitheatre for spectators, please stay within these zones, there will be signage. Please use the Glencoe Gate to access the amphitheatre or accessibility access through the field. There will be no access to the toilets for spectators. As not all our children have photographic permission, we request that parents and carers do not take photos at this event, the champions will share photos.
On this date, children should wear their usual navy joggers/shorts, trainers and on top their house community colour:
It would be fantastic if families could join in and wear their family house colour too!
Children should also remember their water bottle and wear suncream if the weather is sunny.

This year, through the participatory budget, our children chose to buy items to design their own nurturing space within their clan. This is a safe space that would be accessible to all pupils when they need it. Some clans chose to create a sensory space, others chose to make a comfortable seating area. All nurturing spaces are used to support children to self-regulate, they chose items which were calming including lights, comfortable cushions, tents, and activities such as sensory/fidget toys or books.
