As part of their studies on Ancient Rome, sixth graders recently traveled to Philadelphia for a guided tour and workshop at the Penn Museum.
They toured galleries, learning about the history of the Roman Empire, and got to practice being archeologists, handling artifacts, writing down their observations, and trying to guess how the objects may have been used by ancient Romans. #WFSMiddleSchool #WFSBeyondtheClassroom
Thank you to all the WFS community members who came out to Charcoal Pit on Wednesday night to try Coach T’s “Quaker Shake” on his birthday and celebrate our 2025 State Champion Field Hockey Team!
During recess, 1st-grade students worked together on our Natural Playground to design and build their very own see-saw using fallen branches and logs. With teamwork, problem-solving, and plenty of creativity, they transformed natural materials into a working structure—all through hands-on learning and exploratory play.
It was another excellent fall for WFS athletics. Our student-athletes competed with purpose, resilience, and school pride across every field, course, and court. We’re incredibly proud of their hard work and grateful to the fans who cheered them on.
The Quaker Cares Club brought energy and encouragement to campus with a Wellness Smoothie Bike for our Middle and Upper School students! By hopping on the bike and pedaling fast, students blended their own healthy, delicious smoothies—a fun reminder that taking care of yourself matters, especially during high-stress times.
Wilmington Friends School middle school student-athletes wrapped up a successful fall season marked by growth, teamwork, and competitive spirit across cross country, field hockey, football, soccer, and volleyball.
A huge thank you to all of our alumni who came out on November 29 for wrestling, basketball, and volleyball! It was wonderful to see teammates reconnect, compete, and cheer each other on across all three games. Go Blue!
