Celebration of International Women’s Day 8th March 2023! The children have immersed themselves in a range of activities in celebration, from making badges to writing cards.
Meet the heart of Holmewood Boarding 💛
At Holmewood, our house parents are at the heart of every happy home. 💫
Meet Caolan, Isobel and Ralph! The heartbeat of our boarding family.
The boarding house is overseen by the wonderful Head of Boarding, Caolan Wukics, and his partner, Isobel, as Houseparents.
Boarding is, above all, about people. In Caolan and Isobel, Holmewood boarders have Houseparents who bring both warmth and vision. Together, they create a home-from-home where children can thrive as individuals while being part of something bigger.
As Caolan explains:
‘At Holmewood, we see boarding as a journey, shaped by each child’s character, curiosity and confidence. For me, the privilege of being part of that process – watching children find their feet, their voice, and their independence – makes this the best job in the world”
And we must not forget Ralph, Caolan and Isobel’s Cavapoo, who is often
found giving cuddles in the evening.

⚡Flashback Friday ⚡
Here we can see some of our pupils in the 1950s happily making paper aeroplanes and building model boats in the cellar of the Mansion House. All a bit strange you might think! Apparently the cellar was used as a `run-around` area where they even played hockey!
But do you know what year the basement got made in to changing rooms? Let us know your guess in the comments.
