Art – Colour Blending & Tints

Year 3 have had fun colour blending and experimenting with tints using acrylic inks, creating these stunningly colourful swatches. Tom Johnson / Keith Siddle

Year 3 & 4 Assembly

There was plenty to celebrate in our Year 3 and 4 assembly today.  Starting with lots of star and smiley faces badges being awarded for some fantastic house point totals.  This was followed by a presentation of pen licences to some Year 4s and a few subject commendations for great work in Maths, Forest School and French.  A great way to start a sunny Friday! 

Enrichment

In Enrichment this week, the rainforest group created origami birds. The children showed great resilience and perseverance following complicated instructions. Rachael Cowell

Yes, it’s official. After 37 years at Holmewood, Mrs Porritt, Director of Sport, is retiring.



And what a great way to spend her penultimate week - overseeing the annual girls’ football tournament that she started four years ago. Along with her follow coaches at Rose Hill and Somerhill, Mrs Porritt wanted to give every girl from Years 3-6 the chance to play in an end of season tournament. This year approximately 900 girls from local prep schools played over the two days at the three venues which is incredible.



It was wonderful to see all the girls playing some great football on some perfect Holmewood pitches. Many thanks to the staff from the other hosting schools, to the visiting schools, and to the amazing Mrs Porritt and the team at Holmewood for such a hugely successful couple of days.
