This week’s Good Morning Performing featured many of our new young instrumentalists and singers who gave some very rhythmic and lively performances on violin, saxophone, piano and voice. They were also joined by Delilah from Year 8 who played Purcell’s famous “Rondo”. Lydia Carter
RSS rounded off the half term with a brilliant week of learning.
They delivered their first ever assembly on Goldilocks and the Three Bears, speaking clearly, remembering their lines and showing real confidence. A fantastic achievement for our youngest learners.
They also explored The Enormous Turnip, acting out the story with great enthusiasm. These drama sessions supported teamwork, listening and expressive language.
In maths, the children investigated shapes using found materials in the playground. A hands-on way to build spatial awareness and problem-solving.
Seasonal fun made its way into the playground too, with pumpkins and golf tees helping develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.
The turnip story sparked a discussion about winter vegetables, which the children weighed and compared, linking literacy with science and numeracy.
A wonderful end to the half term, full of cross-curricular learning and joyful discovery.

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.
