Trip to The Globe

On Thursday a few of the Year 8 pupils who had finished their exams, went to London watch Romeo and Juliet at The Globe. The show was excellent and a good time was had by all! Bronwen Jervois

Seating in the Friends Pond

With the help of Angus Wright our Operations Manager the pond now has an outside classroom for pupils to enjoy. The log seats are now in place and the outdoor space is truly beautiful.  There is a seating area by the dipping platform and a ‘classroom’ to teach from at the far end. This is a wonderful resource for staff to use with their classes. Let’s hope we have some lovely weather in the second half of term to make the most of the space. Katie Seecharan

 

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.
