17.1.25 Nursery Chronicle
Leven and Rannoch Clan Connects
This morning, Leven and Rannoch Clans 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 Resilience and Growth Mindsets and the importance of thinking positively. They did an amazing presentation and we are so proud of each and every one of our learners.
Leven and Rannoch Clans 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 Leven and Rannoch Clans this morning.
House Meetings
On Friday morning, all pupils across the school came together in their House groups for our first House Meeting of 2025!
Following on from our Connects on values, the pupils looked at each value and discussed what they might look like, sound like and feel like.
It was great to hear pupil voice and see our values of Caring, Integrity, Resilience and Belonging in action.
Calderwood Can Certificates Friday 10th
Well done to our pupils who received their Calderwood Can certificates!
They enjoyed a Cuppa with Miss Stark and Miss Connor.

Calderwood Communication:
- If your child requires medication, please ensure this is handed into the office and the correct forms are completed. Children should not carry medication in their school bag.
- In snow or icy conditions access to the school will be through the front door, we will alert parents/ carers/children to this. During these times there will be no supervisors in the playground. You can find our safe route here.

- Home Learning: Poems will be for the Calderwood Scottish Poetry Competition issued on Seesaw and Teams on 13/01/25. Home Learning grids will be issued on 20/01/25.
Road Safety:
- As you will be aware, the roads and traffic around our school can be busy, particularly at key points of the school and ELC day. We encourage families to walk to and from school, where possible. Where driving to school is unavoidable, please be mindful of other road users and pedestrians when moving through our community, and when stopping to drop children off at school. Every child’s safety is of paramount importance and is essential that we continue to work together to ensure all of our children arrive at and leave safely from school
- In school, we are launching a road safety focus beginning on 20th January 2025, as well as beginning to work on our Park Smart campaign. Throughout our initial launch week, your child will engage in a range of experiences to support their road safety awareness. We will also have an opportunity for every child to contribute an image to be included in our Park Smart banners which will be produced later this term.
Calderwood Compliments:
- Thank you so much to the Calderwood Community Services team, who put salt down in the playground earlier in the week.
P.E. Days Term 3
Rannoch – Christmas Party
Rannoch Clan had a fabulous time at their Christmas party this week. The children danced and sang along to their favourite Christmas songs and played some different festive games. We played Christmas corners, pass the parcel and even had a best dancer competition! It was a lovely, fun afternoon to celebrate the festive season as a clan.
Tummel Christmas Party Fun
Tummel Clan has been brimming with festive cheer after some fantastic Christmas parties! Last week, our Primary 5s teamed up with Ben Lomond Clan for a joyful celebration, while our Primary 4s had a blast partying with Tay Clan. Both events were filled with excitement as everyone danced to lively festive tunes, with a special prize awarded to the best dancer. We shared delicious snacks and had so much fun playing games like Christmas corners together. It was a wonderful way to celebrate the season and create happy memories with friends!
Tay Clan -Christmas Party
Tay clan had a fantastic Christmas party on Monday morning.
To kick off our Christmas party, we put on our playlist of chosen songs, and had a wee boogie to get us warmed-up. After that, we had a fantastic game of Christmas Corners. We also had a best dancer competition. Dancing and taking part in the games made us thirsty and hungry so we took time out for a snack and juice, provided by our lovely helpers, which was served on our Christmas placemats we had designed ourselves. Finally, we took part in some fun dances – chu chu wa and the Macarena. We loved dancing to these! The time went by so fast and were sad to see it come to an end. We had a blast together.
We loved learning, practising and performing our song for the Christmas Celebrations – Count on Me at Christmas. We loved exploring the value of kindness and spreading kindness to others because…..kindness costs you nothing! We hope you all enjoyed it too.
We also had a fantastic Christmas lunch together too. Such fun and wholesome times to spend together as a clan.
