Year 3

Egyptian Day

Year 3 had an exciting day with the team from ‘Hands on History’. They looked at the time line from the present day back to Ancient Egypt. The children enjoyed their teachers being dressed up in different outfits, got to participate in battles and explored the process of mummification in preparation for the afterlife. Each class then discovered Egyptian gods and the animals they represented and handled artefacts to determine their use. Year 3 Team

 

Egyptian Canopic Jars

To correspond with the Egyptian theme of their classwork, the Year 3s are creating Canopic jars using terracotta clay, practising techniques for successfully joining and building with clay, using the “pinch-pot” method and adding coils to build height and form. Tom Johnson / Keith Siddle

The quad fell silent this morning as the school came together for its annual Remembrance Day service.

Led by Mr Morgan-Jones, with heartfelt readings from Mrs O’Sullivan, four Pre-Prep pupils, and our Head Boy and Head Girl, we honoured all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service.

A British Royal Legion wreath was laid beneath the Oak tree, and another at the base of the Oliver Dicketts memorial tree — remembering Oliver (1979–2006), an Old Holmewoodian who gave his life while serving with NATO forces. Forever in our hearts.

We were honoured to welcome Oliver’s parents, Robert and Priscilla, and Alison and Clive Brown, whose son Tom — also an Old Holmewoodian — is currently serving in the Welsh Guards.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.
