P5 Art Showcase

Well done to all the Primary 5 pupils and teachers for all their hard work in creating an amazing showcase this week. There were three types of Art form on display. These included:

Digital Animation
Pupils have been exploring digital creativity using Adobe Express, where they have experimented with generating AI images, drawing their own animated scenes, and producing short stop‑motion videos. During the session pupils showcased their stop‑motion animations and gave a brief demonstration of how they created them.

Art

For the Art aspect of the showcase the pupils highlighted the following 4 different art styles:

• Pop Art, Doodle Art, Abstract Art and Still life drawing

The Art was displayed in the hall with the children walking around, explaining to the adults about each different style.

Junk Kouture

Pupils have taken part in an exciting project where creativity meets sustainability! Working collaboratively, they have designed their own outfits inspired by themes such as “under the sea”. From initial sketches to final creations, pupils explored a range of recycled materials and fabrics to bring their ideas to life. Their finished designs were proudly displayed for everyone to enjoy.

Well done to everyone involved and Thank You to all the visitors who came to the Showcase.

At Calderwood Primary & Nursery, the safety of our children is always our top priority. Recently, concerns have been raised about cars parking on or near the yellow zig-zag lines outside the school gates, particularly at drop-off and pick-up times.

Huge congratulations to Calderwood 1 who were runners up at the West Lothian Euroquiz heat this year. A fantastic result! All that hard work has paid off. With a total of 55 schools entering and over 130 teams we are so proud of their achievements. All 3 teams performed very well and excelled especially in the languages round.
