Year 4 have been working really hard on their descriptive writing this week, including using personification. They used their descriptive techniques to create some fabulous writing of a rambling isle in our book Oliver and the Seawigs. E Gorin
The Year 4s have been studying the colourful and vibrant abstract circle paintings by the artist Sonia Delaunay. Drawing around a variety of templates including lids, cups and bowls pupils created simple circle shapes and concentric circles, before using lines to divide up the shapes and to create imaginative compositions. Finally, pupils added watercolours, colour pencils and pens to complete their dynamic abstract pictures. Tom Johnson / Keith Siddle
Our Nursery is now open 46 weeks a year!
Yesterday, the children kicked off the week by celebrating the festival of Diwali. They crafted their own paper plate diya lamps, explored a colourful splash sensory tray, and created dazzling fork-splatter fireworks.

On the 27th of September we had the pleasure of welcoming back Old Holmewoodians, who attended the school in the 1960s, and former staff, Sandy Helm and Barbara Simpson.
The event was organised in part by Old Holmewoodian Haydn Keenan, who is currently producing a film about Holmewood in the 1960s. The film highlights the multicultural nature of the school and the formative impact it has. Testimonials shown here reveal the same.
The evening consisted of a tour of the school and a wonderful gala dinner interspersed with speeches, singing and even a Shakespeare performance. Our Orangery and screens were filled with film footage, photographs and newspaper clippings documenting the years the alumni had spent at the school.
It was a truly wonderful evening which embodied everything that has made Holmewood so special across its 80 years – the life-long friendships, the community and the opportunities.
A huge thank you to those who attended, those who helped put on the event and a special thank you to Haydn for organising and inviting everyone - we cannot wait to watch the finished film.
