The West Calder High School Cluster Cross Country Competition took place on 24th May 2022 and saw the children from Ben Lomond Clan take on 1.3km of undulating terrain. All the children in this Clan completed the race, hit the targets they had set for themselves and showed huge positivity throughout.
The results are in and we are delighted to announce that a child from Ben Lomond Clan came first in the Boys Race! As a result, they will be attending the Pan-West Lothian event next session to compete against the winners of the other Primary School Clusters.
Many thanks to Kat Stark and all at Active Schools West Calder for organising the event and supporting us on the day.
Buddy Bear has been spotted at different places all over Calderwood Primary.
Can our new Primary 1’s find the places Buddy Bear has visited on their Buddy Bear Hunt this week?

Sika had a fantastic time at their house party last week.
We dressed up or down, ate cake and crisps, danced and played plenty party games!
Check out some of the snaps from the excitement.

Sika House Party At Calderwood

We are preparing for life after restrictions!
We would like to make a list of parent/carer/ close relative volunteers who can support us with trips, outdoor learning, Parent Council events, etc. This involves ensuring the volunteers have a Calderwood Primary PVG (Protecting Vulnerable Groups scheme). Parents or carers who do career talks etc, do not need a PVG as there will always be a champion with them.
As the PVG process does cost, we would request that those parents/ carers who can help are flexible with the days they can help and are prepared to work across the clans, not just the clan their child is in. If you think you can help please complete the form below and the office will contact you or place you on a waiting list.
