Busy, busy, busy - and, we've got a lot more to achieve next week, including getting ready for camp.

Watch this space as we continue to share our future achievements, activities and successes!

5S - Swimming

We don't let a drop of rain get in the way of learning here at Wellesley! 5S enjoyed a morning swimming session in the school pool - a bit like a hot bath remarked some!
