School History & Details

Wesleyan Methodists established the Truro Wesleyan Middle Class College (also known as Truro College) in November 1880. They provide both girls and boys with an exceptional atmosphere from Reception to Year 6 that encourages them to embrace everything life has to offer while encouraging the development of their unique skills. Their goal is to set the groundwork for students to grow up and lead happy, meaningful lives in addition to preparing them for the next step of their education. Learning happens both inside and outside of the classroom, and our on-site Forest School encourages kids to safely enjoy the great outdoors from the very smallest ages. Additionally, there are lots of fun educational excursions and stops that advance learning while using the natural beauty
