We are absolutely delighted to be named Best Boarding House Extension or Refurbishment at the BSA Supporting Excellence Awards 2026.
Boarding has been at the core of Holmewood for more than 80 years, and this award is a powerful recognition that we are leading the way in modern Prep School boarding.
Head, Ruth O’Sullivan, said “we are so proud to have won this important award! Seeing our vision become a reality this year has been a buzz for the whole Holmewood team. Every staff member can take pride and celebrate this: everything we do is genuinely about the children and their experience”.
Our outstanding boarding team, led by Caolan Wukics, go above and beyond every single day to deliver a first-class boarding experience where children aged 7 – 13 flourish academically, pastorally and personally. The refurbishment of our boarding house has strengthened this commitment even further, enhancing our exceptional “home at Holmewood”, a boutique, deeply nurturing environment that stands as a flagship for what modern prep boarding should feel like.
Thank you to the Boarding Schools Association for the award, especially in a category filled with so many great schools. It means a great deal to be recognised among such strong peers.
