Woodford Green's Leading Independent Preparatory School

Y5 pupils and Y6 Music Scholars had a wonderful time at The Nutcracker last week, performed by the English National Ballet at the London Coliseum. For many, it was their first experience of professional ballet and seeing a live orchestra in the pit. Exciting and inspiring!— WGPS (@wgprep) Jan 12, 2026

After some serious concentrating and hard work, Year 2 let off steam with big smiles and even bigger dance moves. Video   — WGPS (@wgprep) Jan 8, 2026

A huge thank you to the PTA for organising a wonderful Christmas Fair. 3B was transformed into a magical Santa’s Grotto, and we are grateful to Father Christmas for taking the time to visit. The children loved the games, activities and festive fun. Thank you to everyone involved! Video   — WGPS (@wgprep) Dec 9, 2025

What a wonderful first Nativity. The whole school is incredibly proud of what our youngest learners have accomplished in one term. Today’s performance was a joyful celebration.

Six pupils represented our school at the Primary Schools' Science Exhibition  @brentwoodschool. They presented two impressive projects: the girls created edible plastic, and the boys generated power from fruit and vegetables, earning the Judges’ Choice Award. Congratulations!— WGPS (@wgprep) Nov 26, 2025

Our FS1 pupils had great fun in PE exploring all the different ways their bodies can move, from slithering snakes to snappy crabs and slow, heavy bears. They then took their new movements onto the equipment, travelling over benches and box tops with brilliant creativity.— WGPS (@wgprep) Nov 20, 2025

Class 1P enjoyed another session of hands-on Forest School. They learned about hedgehog shelters and worked together to build their own cosy hedgehog home. The children loved a fun leaf parachute game, taking turns to guess who was hibernating underneath! #outdoorlearning  #woodfordgreen  #forestschool— WGPS (@wgprep) Nov 19, 2025

This morning, the whole school came together to observe a two-minute silence in remembrance of those who have served. Each child wore a personalised poppy they had made themselves, a symbol of respect and reflection. This year, our Remembrance assembly focuses on the theme “Service Not Self,” reminding us of the courage and selflessness of those who have served. #RemembranceDay  #LestWeForget  #ServiceNotSelf  #PoppyAppeal— WGPS (@wgprep) Nov 11, 2025
