Restoring, conserving and celebrating our amazing heritage
Heritage has been an area that has been given more resource to ensure that we are celebrating and preserving the amazing collection of artefacts, paintings and archives that we have. Last year we recruited a professional archivist who has undertaken a full audit of our artefacts, archives and paintings and we are now able to make some informed choices about how we make the most of what we have and how best to use the collection to engage all members of the College Community with our unique history and heritage.

The Wellington Community Book Club is a small, friendly group of bookworms who meet regularly to debate the meeting’s highlighted books, discuss what they’re currently perusing, and share their love of reading!
The next meeting will be held in the Library Moral Room on Thursday 25th September 2025 from 7.30pm; drinks and light bites will be provided. The group have chosen to read ‘The Names’ by Florence Knapp, ‘Raising Hare’ by Chloe Dalton and ‘Clear’ by Carys Davies.
The group always welcomes new members, even if you haven’t had a chance to read the books! If you would be interested in joining, please email community@wellingtoncollege.org.uk for more information.
