| Dear WAB community,? ?
This year has been extra special as we celebrate WAB’s 30th anniversary—a milestone that has given us the opportunity to reflect on our journey, honor our community’s achievements, and look ahead to an exciting future.
From the very start of the school year, our campus has been alive with learning and creativity. We have welcomed new connections, strengthened our sense of belonging, and continued to provide inspiring and engaging learning experiences for our students. |

Announcing Our New WAB Statue: Dr. Jane Goodall
|
|
|
After a process that engaged our whole community, we are thrilled to announce that the chosen figure is Dr. Jane Goodall—a global icon of conservation, curiosity, and resilience, and a long-time friend of WAB.
Dr. Goodall’s legacy aligns beautifully with WAB’s commitment to sustainability, inquiry, and making a positive impact on the world. The statue will serve as an enduring reminder to our students to be courageous thinkers, compassionate leaders, and responsible stewards of our planet. ?
A special thank you to Parent Link for sponsoring this statue. This initiative has been one of the highlights of our 30th anniversary celebrations, and we look forward to unveiling it later this year! |

Whether you are looking for the latest news, student highlights, or practical school information, the new site offers an intuitive and engaging experience. If you haven’t yet explored it, I encourage you to take a look!
We are now updating the design and functionality of our Parent Portal to enhance the experience for our families.
