Liam has done a fantastic job completing his budget challenge. After taking on a few weekly chores, he and his mum created a new weekly budget that he could use for his shopping. He planned carefully, working out exactly how much money he had and what he needed to buy, and he stuck to his budget brilliantly. He even showed great independence by going around the shop on his own. A huge well done to Liam for his hard work and impressive money‑management skills. The Duke Team
Happy World Bee Day! 🐝
Did you know that when Bees get tired, they nap in flowers? Or that they communicate by dancing?
Our delicious Holmewood Honey is produced by our very own school bees and has long been a firm favourite within the school community. Nestled in the heart of the beautiful Weald countryside, our bees enjoy an abundance of wildflowers and woodland helping to produce honey of the very highest quality. More than just a treat, the hives also help children learn about biodiversity, sustainability and the importance of protecting pollinators.
Even better, sales of Holmewood Honey help support the wonderful work of Hospice in the Weald, making every jar a small way to give back to our local community.
We are grateful to Friends of Holmewood for supplying the hives and to beekeeper, John Preston, for his many years of commitment and service to the school.
Thank you John!

Last week, our Year 8s completed their Enrichment Projects as part of our bespoke Enrichment curriculum that runs throughout the Prep School.
Every pupil took part in the TEDxRTW and Holmewood House Oracy Project, attending training with TEDxRTW and developing their public‑speaking skills with their teachers. Their challenge: to research a topic of personal interest and present it either as a speech or a presentation board.
On Friday, pupils who felt ready to take to the stage were invited to speak at an official TEDx event at Trinity Theatre in Tunbridge Wells. Twelve brave and brilliant speakers stepped onto that iconic red dot, sharing talks on topics ranging from Being a Sibling to Certainty and Doubt, The Best Pasta Shape, Golf Clubs and more.
We are incredibly proud of our pupils for embracing the nerves, rising to the challenge, and showcasing such confidence, curiosity, and character. Their joy afterwards said it all.
Holmewood House was one of five schools involved in this fantastic outreach initiative, and it was a privilege to host the project. Thank you TEDx for this opportunity.
