Calderwood Compliments:

• This week we celebrated the contribution Miss Miller has made to Calderwood through a special connects, where each clan shared their memories of her, songs and memory cards. There is definitely something special about starting a school & nursery together and I would personally like to thank Miss Miller for all her help and support on our Calderwood journey, it’s been quite the experience together! Especially her leadership of our nursery and Primary 1, creativity within our curriculum and focus on Health & Wellbeing. I would like to wish Miss Miller lots of luck in her new adventure! Her caring, nurturing personality and friendship will be greatly missed at Calderwood.  Miss Burton

 

• A message from Miss Miller: What an emotional farewell this week. I have loved celebrating with our wonderful children, champions and families. I would like to thank everyone for their kind words, gifts and support. I am proud to have been part of the Calderwood journey, starting the school from the ground up has been an amazing experience. Building special relationships with children, families and champions has been my favourite part. Your children are a credit to you all, I am privileged to have worked with every one of them. I will treasure the memories and miss everyone dearly. I wish everyone at Calderwood the best for the future as you continue to grow and develop!

• staff look after them and make them feel safe : “all staff are approachable”
• an ethos of community and kindness within the school: ”We don’t just take care of ourselves, we take care of each other”
• they have at least one trusted ‘champion’. They spoke about other ways they can share worries such as emotional check-ins, worry monsters, worry boxes etc.
• school helps them look after their physical, emotional and mental wellbeing through HWB lessons, assemblies and activities
• they learn about keeping themselves safe by using online, bonfire/firework, road and personal safety strategies.
