We have enjoyed a fabulous finish to our castle topic today with an immersive medieval day in costume! We have enjoyed glazing our medieval doors, taking part in a circus workshop, enjoying a delicious banquet lunch, hearing about real armour and making bread at forest school and more! It has been a very exciting day! Year 1 Team
We are proud to celebrate the next steps for our Year 8 leavers with pupils heading off to an impressive range of senior schools including Tonbridge, Sevenoaks, Benenden, Eastbourne College, King`s Canterbury and more.
These destinations reflect the breadth of opportunity and ambition we nurture at Holmewood, and the confidence our pupils take with them on the next stage of their journey.
We look forward to hearing from our recent Alumni how they are getting on at these wonderful schools.

We are delighted to announce that The Creative Learning Hub is a finalist in the SLA 2025 Enterprise of the Year Award. The Award celebrates one-off or progressive projects which contribute towards reading and literacy in schools.
But what is The Creative Learning Hub?
Where can you browse books (in six different languages), relax and read (on a fluffy beanbag illuminated by fairy lights), make something (like a giant “scrumplicious” lollipop), create something (like a comforting poetry quilt), enjoy being (maybe cloud gazing), listen to stories (eating biscuits), go on a journey (maybe in your imagination or to Nigeria), play with friends (perhaps build a tower) and pat a dog.
The Creative Learning Hub occupies a central space within the school and uses the library as a springboard for creative thinking and making. A diverse calendar of literary, cultural, social and well-being events take place throughout the year often involving the wider school community and curriculum areas.
Something for everyone, the Creative Learning Hub enables all types of learners to engage, express themselves, contribute to the organisation of the space or simply chill and take time out. It has catalysed the pupils’ engagement with reading for pleasure as well as nurturing their creativity and emotional well-being.
A huge well done to Creative Learning Leader, Catherine Duncumb who has created this special environment by drawing upon her professional experience of working in graphic design, museum education, and Art and design curriculum development. We can`t wait for the 6th November when the winners will be announced.
