Family Therapist Volker Krohn, Director of the Hoffman Centre Australia/Singapore, will run a workshop for WAB parents on Thursday November 13 in the Lotus Lounge, 9:00am. All ES parents are invited to this workshop designed to help families understand how we can improve our relationships and create positive change in our lives.

The ACT Exam will be administered in the HS on Saturday October 25.

WAB's hosted two college fairs this week in the High School, as well as several workshops focused on assisting HS students as they prepare to apply for colleges and universities.

A college tour to the USA is being planned during the spring break of the 2008/2009 school year.

As the school year winds down, and end-of-year activities increase, so does our excitement, and, in some cases, apprehension, for the coming year. Some of us are preparing to transition to other regions and schools, including all leaving families, teachers and staff, as well as our Grade 12 students. Others of us, including Pre-K, Grade 5 and Grade 8 students and their parents, are entering a period of transition from one school section to the next. All of us, however, are entering a period of transition as we acknowledge the end of another school year.

HS students and parents interested in learning more about the University of International Business and Economics (UIBE) are invited to attend a college fair on the UIBE campus on Saturday May 17. Please contact the HS Guidance Office at hscounseling@wab.edu for more information.

A SAT Prep Course will be offered at WAB in September, through the American company Academic Services International. Registrations forms are available in the Guidance office. Please register with Michelle Chow in the HS Guidance Office by June 30.

The PTA and WAB counselors invite all ES and MS parents to attend a presentation by Caroline Simons, PhD, on the topic of "The International Child" on Tuesday May 20, 6:00pm - 7:30pm, in the Blu Theatre (HUB). Please RSVP to ES Counseling Secretary, Julie Yu, at julie_yu@wab.edu or MS Counseling Secretary, Ceci Tai, at ctai@wab.edu.
