Upper School

Our older children in the Upper Prep, Lower & Upper Elementary Classes are based at the nearby Brookscroft site. This is also known as the Upper School.  Here the children enjoy dedicated classroom environments with limited class sizes, following the school’s educational curriculum whilst maintaining our strong Montessori methodology.

WMS children quickly adapt to the classroom environment with curriculum learning and topics over a weekly timetable
Limited class sizes give our professional teachers more time to dedicate to the children and their learning
The Brookscroft garden comes into its own in Spring and Summer as the perfect place for outdoor learning
In the cooler months, children have been learning more about how things grow by planting and growing their own crop of potatoes
We raise money for good causes
….like Wear It Wild, when get to dress up as our favourite animals
Children work together, learning how to solve problems among their peer groups
…and also in specialist classes discovering topics such as languages,
….and music.
….and dance
Everybody gets plenty of exercise…
…and Wednesday morning tennis lessons are always a favourite part of the week
….then it’s back to class for Maths
Music and performance are important at WMS, so our Summer Concerts are always a huge hit
Every year we mark the turn of Spring at Easter…
…and St David’s Day (and all the other patron saints of course.)
Then we can make the most of our outdoor spaces for learning….
….in our own quiet little spot.
