The Wendy Club is for children aged under four together with their parents and carers. It starts with games and activities in the Fun Club, then moves to the school library for stories and book borrowing. It meets every Tuesday and Friday during term time, from 2-3 pm.
The Wendy Club is named after Wendy Greatrex, who died in 2006. She had two children aged four and two: Oliver and Lucy. They now now attend Henry Prince School where the club is held. Wendy spent much of her time helping to look after children: she ran the Mayfield Parent and Toddler Group, assisted at the Norbury preschool and helped out at Henry Prince.
