Wimbledon school crash: Tributes paid to 'shining star' schoolgirl, 8, killed in tragedy

A girl who died after a Land Rover ploughed into a school during an end of term tea party has been named. Tributes have poured in for tragic eight-year-old Selena, whose surname has not been confirmed, after the tragedy at The Study Prep school in Wimbledon, South West London, on Thursday morning.

A message left at the scene of the harrowing incident hailed "shining star" Selena. A woman wearing a sling on her arm visited the scene on Friday morning, leaving flowers in a box and a card as she was consoled by a man she arrived with.

She left after pausing to look at some other floral tributes. Her note, which included kisses and had a picture of a star on it, read: “Dear Selena, you will always be our shining star. We will miss you so much.”
