Choosing the right school can raise many questions. How can children develop a strong academic foundation while preserving their individuality and pursuing their passions? How can they gain a global perspective while building the confidence and capabilities to navigate the challenges of the future?
At WASCZ, these aspirations go hand in hand. In the classroom, students explore real-world issues through English. Within the boarding Houses, they learn to manage their daily lives independently. Through our enrichment programmes, they discover a wide range of interests beyond the academic curriculum. At WASCZ, academic achievement and personal passions are never an either-or choice.
On Saturday 28 November, we warmly invite you to our Lower and Upper School Open Day. Step onto our campus, experience our classrooms and discover our educational approach in action. We look forward to welcoming you and sharing the many possibilities that lie ahead for your child.

A strong academic foundation opens the door to a world of possibilities. At WASCZ Lower School, our integrated bilingual curriculum draws on the strengths of different educational approaches. Through enquiry-based teaching, engaging thematic lessons and project-based learning, we make learning both purposeful and engaging. Alongside developing a firm grounding in Chinese, Mathematics and English, students are encouraged to develop essential skills in teamwork, communication and critical thinking through practical learning experiences.
From their earliest years at WASCZ, students can explore their interests and develop their talents through a diverse programme of Extra-Curricular Activities (ECAs), spanning sports, music, drama, dance and much more. A wealth of opportunities, including competitions, educational trips and performances both in and beyond the school, allows every student to pursue their interests, discover their strengths and realise their potential.
Lower School also marks the beginning of WASCZ’s distinctive boarding experience. During the Open Day, you will have the opportunity to visit our Boarding Houses and learn how students, supported by Houseparents and tutors, develop independence, self-discipline and the ability to manage their own lives. These experiences help lay the foundations for their continued personal growth as they progress through the school.
