Calderwood Nursery Curriculum Rationale
Thank you to our children, parents/carers and champions who have had a key role in deciding our values and developing our Curriculum Rationale. Please see below our Curriculum Rationale, we would like your feedback on this.
Curriculum Framework Calderwood Nursery
Pipe Band Gala Day Celebration
As part of our East Calder Gala Celebrations, Housebuilder Robertson Homes has organised for the Glencorse Pipe Band to attend Calderwood Primary School. On Friday 19th May, the band will play a Beat Retreat in our school playground as the pupils are collected from school for the holiday weekend. A Beat Retreat denotes the end of the working day and marks the end of another week of hard work by all of our pupils. The band will begin to play at 11:55am and continue until 12:15pm.
Robertson Homes is sponsoring the pipe bands which will be playing at the East Calder Gala Day on 10th June. Robertson wanted to give all our pupils, staff, parents and carers a sneak preview of what to expect by organising this special event for us. Calderwood Primary is thankful for this exciting opportunity.

Calderwood Basketball
What a year it has been for our very first Basketball Teams. We have been lucky enough to have not just ONE but TWO teams competing this year – KNICKS & LAKERS
Mrs Morrison and Mrs Robertson have been so proud of how every team member has developed throughout this past year. We have demonstrated fantastic teamwork and an abundance of core basketball skills. Through participating in our conferences at WCHS and Armadale Academy, we have also been able to demonstrate excellent sportsmanship, resilience and utter determination.
Our Knicks have one final conference to attend and will hopefully progress onto the silver playoff weeks – GO KNICKS!
Thank you to all parents who have come along to support us over these past few months!
Championing Coding: National Robotarium
The Bens had a phenomenal opportunity to take a trip to the newly-opened National Robotarium. Ben Lomond and Ben Lawers had the most amazing day being ambassadors for our school, showing off their robotics and coding knowledge, and exploring new AI technologies.
Please see the Sway created by Ben Lomond all about their trip:

Roe House Party Celebrations
On Friday 21st April, Roe House had their term 3 celebration. The pupils hosted their own pyjama party that included party games, hot chocolate and treats! The pupils enjoyed playing musical statues and corners as a house. Well done to Roe for your hard work in term 3.
Community Cupboard Donations
We have recently started up our ‘Community Cupboard’ at Calderwood to support our families and community. As part of this, we have been growing our partnerships to help support and build our community cupboard stock.
We are now open to receive donations for our school. We are interested in collecting dried foods, non-perishable goods and any toiletries.
If you are able, please send these items in with your child for our dress down day. We are looking for an item per family NOT per child.
If you feel you could benefit from our community cupboard, please contact the office and ask for one of the ‘Equity Champs’ to get in touch. There is also a discrete online form you can complete and someone will get in touch with you.
Calderwood Can Certificates- 21.04.23
Well done to all of our learners who received a Calderwood Can Certificate this week. It was great to see lots of success in Calderwood Counts and lots of empathy and respect being displayed across the school. We are so proud of your achievements!
Ben Lomond Camp!
Ben Lomond have created their own sway which reflects their own experiences of the camp.
They hope you enjoy looking through their work 🙂
