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!

Burns Recital Competition 2023
Scottish Recital – Clan Winners
Last Friday we celebrated Burns by reciting poems in our clans. The children were absolutely amazing! The hard work, perseverance and confidence was excellent to see, whether on Teams, See Saw or in person. A huge thank you to our families to supporting our children to learn and perform in their own way.
Each clan voted for their winner. Congratulations to our clan winners below. If your child was a winner you are invited to watch your child compete and recite their poem in front of the judges tomorrow.
