You need to modify Onet.xml file,

If you go through article link I given above you will figure out that in Onet.xml file you need to add

<ListTemplates>
  <ListTemplate .. tag for calendar list and then />
  <ListTemplate .. tag for calendar list and then />
</ListTemplates>

You will need to change list template type for calendar and annoucement in list template, I will let you do it yourself.
