WAB
1st GRADE 10 WORK EXPERIENCE WEEK - June 1 2007
This week – May 28 to June
1 - is a significant week in the
development of educational opportunities
for High School students at WAB.
All Grade 10 students will experience
the World of Work in a wide variety
of occupations. This is a first
for WAB and certainly is not the
norm for International Schools.
The development of such a programme
has been built on the generosity
of the businesses concerned, the
support of interested parents and
a need for WAB to prepare our students
for the future.
VISA INFORMATION FOR STUDENTS TURNING 18 YEARS
OF AGE - May 11 2007
In June last year, government regulations for 18 year olds
studying in international schools changed so that students would require
their own visas and could not study in China as dependents on their parents’ visas.
GRADUATION CEREMONY AND DINNER/DANCE -
April 6 2007
On June 2nd, we will celebrate our first graduation class
with a 10:00 am ceremony at the Confucius Temple. The historic and
educational significance of the Confucius Temple will ensure that our
graduation is unique amongst Chinese International Schools. We look
forward to a unique and highly memorable ceremony for our first graduating
class.

program designed to help students investigate their future as well as

GRADE 11 SAT AND SAT PREPARATION COURSE
