Creative Calderwood – STEM

Today we were delighted to host the Primary Science Development Officers from authorities across Scotland. They were all given a tour of our school building and heard all about the amazing STEM learning which is going on every day at Calderwood Primary School!

Calderwood Clan Championships

We are excited to hold our first annual sports day on 1pm on Thursday 26th May (weather permitting). If the event needs to be cancelled, we will groupcall you on Thursday morning to inform you.

This event will have two parts:

  • Highland Games Competition: In house communities
  • Clan Races: There will be two races per clan, decided by the children and they will be opt in

 

Families are invited along to the event, we would request that we limit guests to two adults per family. As we start to move out of covid restrictions, towards whole school events, we want to support our children with this, as these events are very new experience for some of them. 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. 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:

  • Sika – blue
  • Red – red
  • Fallow – green
  • Roe – yellow

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.
