Christmas Fayre – What to expect!
The Calderwood Christmas Fayre is nearly upon us, and we wanted to share some info on what you can expect!
The fayre is free to attend, but we are accepting donations to help cover the running costs. We appreciate that it’s an expensive time of year however, so please only donate if you feel you can!
You can make your donation here or at the fayre in cash or online using the QR codes around the school!
Inside you’ll find stalls selling amazing crafts and treats, perfect for ticking some things of the Christmas gift list! Stalls include;
· Dannielle Stanners Christmas decorations and seasonal products
· Carole McNeish Knitting
· Sils Craft and Creations Jewellery
There will be free activities for the kids including;
· Christmas craft zone
· Christmas movie and reading area
· Storytime with Santa
· Older kids game zone
Finally, there will be a tombola for the kids, a raffle for the adults, hot dogs (incl. veggie ones) and a selection of hot and cold drinks available to purchase.
Cash and Card payments will be accepted at all stalls organised by the parent council, however we do advise bringing some cash for other stalls just in case.
Looking forward to seeing you on Friday!

Glasgow Institute of Architects Awards
We are super excited to share the news that JM Architects who designed Calderwood Primary & Nursery, have received two awards as shown below.
Children from our Thistle Clan, did an excellent job of showing the judges around our Calderwood home, enthusiastically sharing why we love it so much! At the time, they didn’t realise they were showing around the judges/
Congratulations to JM Architects!
East Calder Scouts Santa Sleigh Event
East Calder Scouts are delighted to bring back our annual Santa sleigh event.
Santa has again kindly agreed to fly through the streets of Calderwood, Linburn, Kirknewton and East Calder, handing out sweets to children.
If you live in the Calderwood area of East Calder or in Linburn Santa will come to you on Sunday 11th December between 4 to 8. You can find this event on Facebook here:https://facebook.com/events/s/santa-sleigh-event-east-calder/2118316608360443/
If you live in Kirknewton or East Calder (not Calderwood area) you can see Santa the day before, on Saturday 10th December between 4pm to 8pm – you can find this event on Facebook here:https://facebook.com/events/s/santa-sleigh-event-kirknewton-/1455805141553049/
We will be making plenty of noise so you will likely hear up coming and you may notice ‘Santa Stop Here’ signs, popping up a few days before.
We are also in tricky negotiations with Santa’s lawyers on whether we can GPS track him this year, so you can see when he’s close to your home. If you show interest on Facebook for an event, we’ll keep you updated on this.
We look forward to seeing you then.

Santa’s little helper
