Primary 1 had a super last week and enjoyed spending time with their buddies. Everyone has worked hard and have shown they are ready to move into P2.
We hope everyone has a great summer and we thank you very much for your kind words and lovely gifts.

Well done to all the P6s who took part in our lunchtime boccia tournament. The final was very close – it all came down to the last ball!
Congratulations to our winning pair!
Hi to all parents and carers. We look forward to continuing to work with you in the new session. Please find Social Stories for each class which can be viewed at any time over summer to support your child/children as they begin their new class in August.
If you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to get in touch,
Miss Baldacci (Principal Teacher).
Huge Congratulations everyone!
I am delighted to announce that East Calder Primary has been awarded a Silver Reading Schools Award from the Scottish Book Trust.
Thank you to all staff, pupils and families who have been reading, talking about books, enjoying libraries and sharing their love of books and reading with others.
Classes completed the Reading Schools Attitude Survey and it was great to see many of you enjoy reading more now. You said you have more interesting things to read and describe reading as relaxing and fun.
Thank you for your involvement and enthusiasm, and a special mention to those who find reading a bit tricky but keep trying.
Now that we have an award it’s important to continue to build on our Reading culture at East Calder Primary. There will be lots of opportunities to carry on sharing our enjoyment of reading and books next session.
I am so proud of you all and remember KEEP READING!
I am very proud of these pupils for their fantastic achievements outside of school. One pupil got these trophies for her amazing racing which we enjoy hearing about each week. She got 5 1st places at Ireland. The next pupil got this wonderful medal for his martial arts competition – a massive well done!
Miss Baldacci
Once again this term our P6 pupils had the opportunity to lead their own learning within our IDL context The Human Body. We have had some really amazing projects submitted, showcasing a huge range of presenting styles and an enormous amount of creativity. Pupils chose to focus on body systems and we have thoroughly enjoyed seeing each others’ projects; looking forward to sharing more of these in class next week.
A fantastic effort, P6A, very well done!
More Gala success in Primary 6A- well done to runners Jaymin and Ryan!
Our resident oyster catchers have nested again this year and have had 2 chicks! Our pupils have been learning how to be respectful and responsible around them and are enjoying watching them grow and develop at break times.
Thank you so much to Ian and Brett from the 3Sixty Bicycle Stunt Team for visiting us today. Our P1-7 pupils and staff loved the display and were amazed at some of the stunts!
Primary 1a enjoyed sharing their learning in our school assembly. It was all about Fairyland. They loved dressing up as a dragon,knights, kings , queens and fairytale characters. They read all their parts beautifully, included a fairytale quiz and performed a great action song at the end. Great work!
The children also had fun at a judo session on Wednesday. Look at our moves!
By the end of a busy week , we were all treated to an exciting BMX bike display. Our hearts were in our mouths watching some of their jaw-dropping stunts!
