On Friday morning, Burns Clan came together to share their learning with their families and the rest of the school community through their Clan Connects.
The children told us all about Equity at Calderwood and their important role in deciding how our Participatory Budget is spent. They did an amazing presentation and we are so proud of each and every one of our learners.
Burns Clan then spent some time with their adults, sharing more of their learning from the year so far.
Thank you to all parents and carers who were able to come along to support Burns Clan on Friday morning.
At our Calderwood Connects we discussed our Calderwood Cares approaches to celebrating successes and supporting us with our choices.

On Friday 2nd December, Bramble Clan presented their own connects all about ‘The Bramble Brain Lab.’ The pupils created a fantastic performance sharing their knowledge of the different parts of the brain, what our brain helps our bodies do and how our brain can grow so we can learn new things. Bramble presented an incredible performance that took into account costumes, acting and music! Well done Bramble Clan!
On Friday 9th December, Bluebell presented their own clan connects all about the narrative writing they had been learning about in their clan. Bluebell acted out the story of Cinderella and then shared how they took the plot of this story to recreate their own versions. The pupils shared the different writing techniques they had learned so they could create their own books. We were so impressed by their fantastic acting, singing and understanding of stories. The pupils finished their connects with an amazing song that inspired the audience that life really is your own story. Well done Bluebell Clan!
