80 years ago, on the 5th of October 1945, Holmewood House School opened its gates for the first time to eight boys. Eight decades, nine head teachers and the introduction of girls later, today we celebrate 80 years of memories, friendships, and achievements at Holmewood.
We have recently invited the class of 1965 and the class of 1975 back to see the school, reconnect with each other and have a look at our archival materials. It has been incredible to see how formative and important the years at Holmewood have been for so many people.
As we celebrate the last 80 years of Holmewood and those who have made and continue to make the school so special, we invite former staff, students, parents and friends to join our Old Holmewoodian network. There is a form in our bio, or you can get in touch via alumni@holmewoodhouse.co.uk.
In our 80th year and beyond we hope to connect Old Holmewoodians through our alumni network, upcoming reunion events and our imminent alumni website with more details to follow. Here’s to the next chapter of Holmewood’s story.

Well done to all our pupils who have been taking part in a range of weekend sports and competitions:

• Tavonga (U12 Girls) won Silver
• Leonard (U10 Boys) took Bronze
• Hannah put in a great performance and made it to the Direct Elimination stage
🔴At the National Schools Equestrian Association (NSEA) event at Hadlow College our Holmewood equestrian team performed brilliantly:
• Darcy came 3rd in the 60cm class
• Alice came 1st in the 70/75cm and 2nd in the 80/85cm
🟢William was on top form at the Beacon Swimming Club Championships, achieving several PBs and picking up medals, including Silver in the 100m Backstroke and Bronze in both the 200m Backstroke and 200m Individual Medley!
🟠Several of our pupils took on the mighty Junior Hever Triathlon. Alex, Henry Ava, Charlie, Isla and Ellie all rose to the occasion with Isla placing 2nd in her age category.
Well done to everyone involved! Go Holmewood!
