🏫 ✨ A huge thank you to everyone who came along to our senior schools fair last week. It was a fantastic evening for our WPS families and the wider community, giving families the opportunity to meet a range of independent schools and explore the options for their children’s next steps.
We’re so grateful to all the schools that joined us and took the time to speak with all the families and answer their questions.
Thank you to everyone for helping make the evening such a success. We’re looking forward to the next one 🏫

To round off the half term, each of our classes held a showcase, welcoming parents into school to see their children’s work and take part in activities related to their project.
It’s such a lovely opportunity for families to get a glimpse into everyday life in our classrooms, seeing what the children have been learning and the progress that they’ve made since the beginning of term. 📚 🎨
The children also love having the chance to share their work and show their families what they’ve been learning 💙

📚 Buddy reading
Our Reception children welcomed Year 2 children to their class for a special reading session.
The Year 2 joined the Reception class to listen to them read, helping with tricky words, sounding out and talking about the stories together.
Buddy reading is a wonderful way for older and younger children to learn from one another. It’s also a lovely way to build friendships across the year groups.
Looking forward to the next session already! 📕

As part of this half term’s project ‘Big Wide World’ Pre Prep Nursery and Reception visited the London Transport Museum @ltmuseum 🚊
During their visit the children took part in a ‘is this the way home?’ session and learnt and explored different ways of travelling and modes of transport in the past and present.
It was a fun, engaging and memorable day that helped bring classroom learning to life.
