Dear Parents and Carers,
I hope that everyone had a good Easter break and it has been great to see the children back in school and hearing all about their holidays. The school has been a great place to be this week with the beautiful weather and everyone refreshed after their well needed break.
This week, children across Holbrook received awards for their hard work in 
subjects across the curriculum. A big thank you to all of the parents who came along to good learners today, to make the event even more special for the children.
Some children were awarded certificates for their work in English, including excellent resilience with handwriting – as well as a special award for always giving their best in all subjects.
Others were presented with certificates for their History writing about their trip to Hampton Court Palace. Fabulous artwork was displayed, including “castle in the sun” while another pupil was rewarded for their excellent Grizzly Bear research homework too.
Reading Champion Certificates were awarded to: Layton W (this comes with a gift voucher too!)
Bronze Reading Certificates were awarded to:Â Kayleigh C, Jessica D, Alfie L, Lucas, Hannah, Jasmine H-B, Brooke O
Silver Reading Certificates were awarded to: Ruby S, Tom F, Talia, Lucas
Gold Reading Certificates were awarded to: Ruby S, Tobias H, Kevin W, Ben C

As part of Holbrook’s commitment to be an inclusive school (and in keeping
with our Inclusion Quality Mark too) the school held a cake sale, fundraising and singing assembly to mark our Rainbow Day!
Dear Parents,
What a busy week we have had this week! On Thursday we became knights in training and completed several training activities including jousting, shooting a bow and arrow, rescuing people, practising our sword skills and horse riding skills and doing medieval dancing. We also had a visit from the fire service who taught us all about fire safety and other ways to keep safe. The children got to go in the fire engine and everyone got to have a go at using the hose to put out a pretend fire. On Friday we went to Porchester Castle. We are so proud of how well the children behaved, how resilient they were at coping with the cold weather and how brave they were going all the way to the top of the castle keep. They were true Holbrook heroes! We have our class assembly next Friday where we will be sharing what we have been learning in this topic and some more photos from our school trip. We hope to see you there.
Thank you,
Angelfish Class
Dear Parents and Carers,
Welcome back to school after a soggy half term. I am looking forward to the first signs of spring and some nicer weather.
