History Trip to the Tower of London

As part of their Humanities curriculum, Year 7 visited the Tower of London on Friday.  Pupils enjoyed two fascinating tours which focused on the Norman Conquest and Elizabethan prisoners. They were also able to view the Crown Jewels and go inside the White Tower.  It was a very productive and enjoyable day. Bruce Crombie

Biology

This week, Year 7 have been learning how to mount their own slides for observation under the microscope, and how to calculate the magnification of their sketches. Dave Bennett

What an incredible afternoon of swimming at our recent gala against Somerhill! In what provide to be an exceptionally close and exciting competition, the final result came down to the very last few events. After an impressive 49 races, Holmewood came out victorious. ⁠
⁠
Mr Stevens said "This was a true team effort. Huge congratulations to every single child who took part. Whether you swam in one race or four, you played an important role in securing the victory. Your determination, team spirit and resilience in the pool were fantastic to see."⁠
⁠
A special thank you to Ms Bowman, Mrs Bradbury and Mr Stevens for organising such a smoothly run event and to all the supporters cheering from the sides. ⁠
⁠
Well done Team Holmewood - a brilliant achievement and a wonderful example of teamwork in action! ⁠

House News 👏

This morning, six brave musicians from Years 7 and 8, performed in front of the school in the first ever House Solo Music Competition. A daunting task but they took it in their stride and represented their houses brilliantly.

A couple of the children were less experienced performers and had been recruited last minute, making their efforts even more impressive!

Our judges, Head Ruth O’Sullivan, Bursar Mr Laker and Head of Music Mrs Carter, will now deliberate and the winner announced in assembly on Monday. In the meantime we look forward to the soloists from Years 5 & 6, and Years 3 & 4 taking to the stage.

Good luck to Ash, Cob, Cedar, Yew, Oak and Beech!
