We’re deeply proud of our Hampshire roots.
Which is why we’re thrilled to have been shortlisted for the Independent Schools of the Year Award for Regional Independent School of the Year: South.
Upper Sixth Former, Thomas, has also been nominated for the Rising Star of the Year Award, in recognition of his solar cooker invention, capable of saving millions of lives from waterborne diseases.
And great things come in threes. @stneotsprepschool, part of the Lord Wandsworth Family of Schools, has been shortlisted for the Independent Pre-Prep of the Year Award.

🌈🏳️🌈 Running through rainbows 🏳️🌈🌈
This year`s Colour Run, organised by LWC`s Prefect Team, was a psychedelic spectacle designed to bring the College together.
Held to coincide with Pride Month, promoting diversity and inclusion, it was also a brilliant way to round off another year.
Well done to our 30-strong Prefect Team for organising...and to the runners who are still finding luminescence behind their ears. 🏳🌈

"The most vital lessons are the ones you`ve taught each other."
A message to (and from) LWC`s extraordinary Upper Sixth, as they take their next steps beyond our 1200 acres.
Trust the instincts you`ve honed; they will serve you well.

Applause through the Acorn Gates 👏🏻
The LWC community lined the route to our historic Acorn Gates last weekend to applaud the outgoing Upper Sixth, as they begin their next exciting chapter.
The Acorn Gates were built in 1926 by architect, Guy Dawber.
Never one to be bound by convention, he designed everything from gardens to grand stately homes and churches to the Reptile House at London Zoo.
He was instrumental in the creation of the Council for the Preservation of Rural England, which has been safeguarding the countryside ever since.
Go well into the world, Upper Sixth and like Sir Dawber, don`t be afraid to change it.

Racing towards summer ☀🌴🌊
School`s out LWC!
Yesterday`s Party on the Green celebrated another extraordinary year, with good food, good company and a suitably smooth slip and slide 💦
Well done on a tremendous ten months. We`ll see you in September for the next chapter... 😎

Transported to the trenches 🪖
LWC`s production of Michael Morpurgo`s Private Peaceful took us straight to the front lines of World War 1.
Young British soldier, Thomas Peaceful, reflects on his short life and the deep bonds he`s made, as he confronts the harsh realities of what`s ahead.
A breathtaking performance to round off the school year. 🎭

☀️ Sunshine, speeches, smiles (and a few happy sobs)...
Speech Day 2026 was a spectacular celebration of the last year at LWC.
Well done to all on another remarkable ten months in the 1200. ☀️

📍From the bottom of the Eiffel Tower to the peaks of the Brecon Beacons...
This half-term has seen a myriad of residential and day trips leaving LWC, destined for a different kind of classroom.
As 4th Form explored the fashion and architectural heartlands of the French capital, 2nd Form took a step outside their comfort zones in the Brecon Beacons.
Our Lower Sixth studied seahorses on Studland, wandered the coast of West Wales and sketched sculpture in Salisbury (we promise we`re not making this up for alliterative purposes).
That`s four weeks lived to the fullest....
Now for more end-of-term celebrations 🥳
