Calderwood Curriculum – Page 18 – Calderwood Primary and Nursery

This year, your child’s school will be participating in Sustrans’ I Bike project. Your child’s school might have also participated during the previous academic year.

I Bike delivers a variety of activities and events. These include led walks and rides, Dr Bike, Bikeability, Active Travel Breakfast and bike maintenance.

This Parent and Carer survey is collecting data for the purpose of evaluating and monitoring the I Bike project. We are interested to see the impact it has had on you and your child and your thoughts on what could make active travel easier for your child.

Active travel is when a journey is made by being physically active, such as walking, wheeling, cycling and scooting/skating.

The results may be used to influence and support further local and national funding bids and help define the health value of physical activity and active travel. It will help to understand and continue to improve the project. Specific comments on local infrastructure will be noted but is beyond the scope of I Bike.

Please complete the short survey – it should take about 4 minutes. I Bike Parent and Carer Survey (2022/23): https://sustrans.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/i-bike-parent-and-carer-survey-2022

We are currently developing our approaches to health and wellbeing. We would like our families to give some feedback so we can improve and implement on these approaches at Calderwood.

Clan Connects: Ben Lawers

Ben Lawers hosted our first Calderwood Connects for families on Friday. They had been learning about the West Lothian Food Bank as part of their Calder Communities Context. The children created a drama centring around everyone needs help at some point in their life, sharing different times when families might use a food back.

We also welcome representatives from West Lothian Foodbank along to watch.

A huge well done to Ben Lawers Clan, we are super proud of your performance, and the creative way you shared this important message.

Mini Champ Opportunities

Our Health and Wellbeing Hub – Name Reveal!!

Over the past few months our Equity Champions have been working hard to design and create a health and wellbeing hub (a space which all pupils would have access to at times during their time at Calderwood).

Our Mini HWB Champs launched a whole school competition to create a name for this space.

We had lots of great suggestions of names! However, our mini champs decided on one they felt captured Calderwood most…. in true Calderwood style with all C’s!

At Calderwood Connects our Mini HWB Champs announced the winning name.
