“Hope” Anti-Bullying Production

Calderwood Primary had a visit from “Take Away Theatre” last month, who performed “Hope”, an anti-bullying production, to our P4-7 clans.  P4 and P6 clans also participated in follow-up workshops.  The performance was delivered by professional actors and was thought-provoking and entertaining for the children.  The children were captivated throughout the performance.  The workshops for P4 and P6 clans provided the opportunity for the children to explore the issues raised in the performance in greater depth.  Through Health and Wellbeing lessons, children also completed activities in clan related to the performance.

Champion Conversations

A big thank you to our pupils who helped out at our recent Champion Conversations.  They did a great job of directing parents to the correct clan room.  They were polite, helpful and welcoming throughout the whole night.  Well done everyone.  

Caring Cafe Citizen Certificate

This week we launched our new lunchtime initiative – Caring Café Citizen Certificate.  We are looking for pupils to go above and beyond during lunchtime and respect our Café environment. Pupils who demonstrate being helpful and caring are then invited to sit at the High Chair area on a Thursday with a friend, they get a certificate home, 10 house points and are added to our Caring Café Collage.  Well done to our first winners.

Almond Valley Trip

Tummel, Tay, Rannoch, Leven and the P2s from Linlithgow had the best day at Almond Valley this week.  We learned all about shale and the mining that used to happen in West Lothian.  We saw lots of animals and learned about their habitat and what they eat.  We also had lots of fun in the park.  Thank you to all the adults who helped us on our trip.

British Science Week in Bramble Clan

This week in Bramble Clan all of our learning was themed around British Science Week. This included science spelling words, research and writing about ‘How Volcanoes Erupt’.

Whilst rehearsing for our show, Aladdin we had discussions about lighting and microphones and the science behind this.

Our main focus this week was preparing for the upcoming ‘Dragon’s Den’ competition. We considered current problems and issues in the world such as excess rubbish, deforestation and climate change. After researching these topics, we worked in groups to invent a solution. Stay tuned for pictures and videos our amazing ideas!
