Calderwood Primary and Nursery

Calderwood Can: 11/03/22

Our Ben Lawers and Lomond Clans started British Science Week by organising and teaching a Science Friday Takeover with all our clans.

They nominated children from each clan for a certificate for their contribution and participation in the science tasks!

Congratulations everyone and thank you to our Ben Clans for organising such a successful event.

Big Walk and Wheel Event

Dear Parent/Carer,

Please see below information about the Big Walk and Wheel Event Calderwood Primary and Nursery will take part in from 21st March – 1st April.

Big-Walk-and-Wheel-2022

Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel is taking place 21 March - 1 April 2022

Reminders

Dear parent/ carer,

I hope you had a lovely weekend, just a wee email with a few updates and reminders.

Outdoor shoes

A lot of our children are keen to play on the grass areas which can be muddy and damp at times. A gentle reminder that if your child wants to play in this area they should have a pair of outdoor shoes (that they can keep in school) – wellies or old trainers with a change of socks. This will help ensure they are comfortable during clan time and prolong the life of our carpets.

Planting – Wednesday 16^th March

Miss Christie has organised a Super Spud planting session through RHET on Wednesday. All clans will take part in this, please ensure your child has outdoor shoes to change into, a warm jacket and it might be advisable to wear comfy bottoms – like what they wear on P.E days.

Calderwood Magic Miles

If you are sharing your photos on Twitter, please don’t put your child’s name on the tweet. It is okay to add the clan name. This will help keep everyone safe.

Tempest Photos: Clans: 24^th March

On 24^th March Tempest will take official group photos of our clans for you to purchase. Please ensure your child is wearing school uniform on that day and not P.E kit. They take their shoes off for the photo, so their socks will be on display.

Have a lovely week!

Kind regards,

Miss Burton
