As part of Nick Morgan’s No Scotland No Party, School Tour, he visited Calderwood last month.
The children had an amazing time at the mini concert in our Arena!
Thanks to our Parent Council for providing us with Scottish Flags for the event.
On Friday our Stag Squd performed at the Usher Hall in Edinburgh at the South East Regional Final.
We are super proud of the Glee Group and their achievements, it was a fantastic experience to watch them all perform on stage in such a fantastic setting.
P7 Calderwood pupils attended the annual West Lothian Track and Field championships at Craigswood Sport centre. The pupils competed in various events. On the track they competed in the 80m, 600m and 100m by 4 relay race. On the field they competed in the long jump and the shot put. Well done to both the girls and boys teams as they demonstrated excellent athletic abilities and good sportsmanship throughout the day.
Calderwood pupils attended an Active and Sustainable Travel sharing session at West Calder High School. Each of the cluster schools shared the work they have been doing with the AST group. The event was also an opportunity for the young people (and adults) to better understand the process of consultation and change. It was also an opportunity for the pupils to see other schools in their clusters Place Standards and share what is good and what they could do to improve their local community. A number of people from different Council departments attended and chatted with the pupils and answered any questions that they had.
Well done to the team from Calderwood who competed in the Jak Trueman cup on Wednesday evening. They team played very well in all the games and were undefeated on the night. They came 3rd in the tournament after narrowly losing on penalties in the semi-final.
This week, we were delighted to host our COSD (Cost of the School Day) event here at Calderwood, bringing together families, partners and pupils for a really positive and supportive afternoon.
The event was designed to help families access support, advice and information in a relaxed and welcoming environment. A range of partner organisations joined us, offering guidance on areas such as clothing grants, funding support, employment opportunities and local community programmes for the summer.
Our pupils played an important role in making the event such a success. They helped to run a coffee shop, creating a friendly space for families to come together, chat and find out more about the support available.
We would like to extend a huge thank you to all of our partners who took the time to attend and share their expertise. Your support makes a real difference to our school community and helps ensure that families feel informed and supported.
We are also incredibly grateful to the families who came along. It was lovely to see so many people taking the opportunity to connect with services, ask questions and spend time together in school.
Events like this highlight the strength of our community and the importance of working together to support all of our children and families.
Thank you again to everyone involved in making this such a successful event.
