@Source: dailyrecord.co.uk
Calderbridge Primary School in Coltness has proudly secured the Sportscotland Gold School Sports Award for the second time. To mark the golden moment, the Calderbridge Sports Committee pulled out all the stops to host an unforgettable Sports Week. From high-energy events to new sporting experiences, the entire school community came together to celebrate fitness, fun and teamwork. The week began with a nutritious kickstart, thanks to the Welby Team and the local Costcutter, who joined forces to provide every pupil with a healthy breakfast—fuelling bodies and minds for the exciting days ahead. Throughout the week, pupils took part in a fantastic range of activities, from a vibrant sports day to trying out archery, New Age Kurling, rugby, speed stacking and Taekwondo (TKD) developing new skills and discovering new passions. It was a week bursting with smiles, sweat and school spirit. A special highlight was the Golden Celebration, where the entire school came together to mark the incredible milestone of achieving the Gold Award once again. The support of the school’s Active Schools Coordinator, Ailsa, was fantastic and her enthusiasm and expertise added a huge amount to the success of the week. The school’s headteacher Diana Osborne said: “I am incredibly proud of all our children. Their teamwork, enthusiasm and sportsmanship throughout the week were truly inspiring. “Achieving the Gold Award for a second time is a testament to their dedication and a shining example of our school’s commitment to nurturing a strong, inclusive and lasting culture of sport and physical activity.” None of this would have been possible without the dedication and leadership of Mrs Wilson, Miss McGuiness, the Sports Committee and the countless volunteers who gave their time to ensure the week ran smoothly. Thankfully, the sun shone brightly throughout, adding to the success of this activity-packed celebration. *Don't miss the latest headlines from around Lanarkshire. Sign up to our newsletters here .
