Happy half term for everyone. Hope you enjoy the holidays. We will look forward to seeing everyone on Monday 7th June.
Pupils were entranced by the magnificent Lancing Chapel (the largest school chapel in the world!), where they had the privilege of singing evensong alongside pupils from several other prep schools.
The day was a great success and a wonderful opportunity for our Choristers to hone their sight reading skills.

This summer our wonderful charity and alumni ambassador PMJ visited Malawi, Zambia and South Africa seeing how money from Holmewood’s second hand uniform shop helps children in Africa. This is in conjunction to the two UK charities they also support - Dandelion Time and The Children’s Respite Trust.
First up was a visit to a local village near Blantyre, Malawi where he helped at a maize Pap feeding programme.
He then travelled to Lusaka, Zambia to visit Shine, a charity which is committed to eliminating illiteracy among poor and vulnerable children. Shine was founded by the uncle of two former Holmewood House pupils and is fabulously supported by Holmewood House’s second-hand uniform shop.
PMJ’s trip ended in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. Here he helped at Heatherbank Township community school where the second hand uniform shop has provide the library, ICT area, playing fields and poly tunnels. Old Holmewoodian Christan Levack raised money for Heatherbank’s game shed and equipment by climbing Mount Snowdon.

and see what an incredible difference Holmewood House is making to these most vulnerable children.
