Year 3 had a great time meeting different adults from throughout the Prep school, as they searched for the elusive ‘Golden Tickets’. The children were invited to bring in an item linked to a Roald Dahl story. Each class had fun trying to guess the various characters and book titles. This afternoon,everyone had the opportunity to visit the Learning Hub to participate in designing their own den and learning how to speak ‘Gobblefunk’. Year 3 Team
As the first session in their ‘Life Skills Diploma’ , Year 3 had a session on learning how to tie their tie neatly and independently. The session was lead by our resident expert Mr Jervis. The session culminated in a world record attempt which was won by Albert!
👏 Scholarship Success 👏
Congratulations to Matilda on her Music Scholarship to Eastbourne College!
Lydia Carter, Head of Music, said “Matilda impressed Eastbourne`s Director of Music with her determination and musicality combined with thorough preparation which earned her a music scholarship as a cellist, flautist and singer! An amazing achievement for someone who until a month before her scholarship had never sung solo before!”
Well done Tilly! Thank you for your contribution to Holmewood music over the years.

🎨 Art meets Forest School 🌿
In Art, Year 3 have been making ceramic candle holders. Starting with slab-rolled terracotta with press-moulded and stamped details, their holders went in the kiln for the first bisque-firing. Pupils then applied two coats of the brush-on glazes before the second glaze firing.
This week, their holders came to life in Forest School as the children added the wick and poured in beeswax melted over the fire. It was a calming, focused activity set in the peace of the outdoors, and a wonderful chance for the children to see their patience and effort rewarded as their project finally came together. We think the finished candles look brilliant.
