This Weekend: Join us for Fun Community Events at WAB

One of the biggest weekends of the year is coming up at WAB, and we want you to join us!

On Friday, May 24, and Saturday, May 25, we'll be hosting a series of community events with seemingly endless amounts of entertainment and activities going on. Here's a breakdown of everything taking place!

FRIDAY

Jazz in the Park, 3:30pm: Beginning immediately after school, join us on the High School campus for some incredible jazz performances. Start the weekend off right by tapping your toe and dancing to some great student and professional jazz musicians.

Identity Film Festival, 6pm: As the evening progresses, bring out your blankets and grab some snacks! We'll be watching some of the best student-created films from around WAB and the Beijing schools community. Tune in and hang out to see who will take home some of the coveted prizes.

SATURDAY

Rock in the Park, 2-8:30pm: Rock in the Park features a full day of artistic performances, like dance and jazz. There will be student bands, solo acts, and dancers, as well as some of Beijing's most entertaining performers on campus throughout the day. The HUB Peace Park will be full of organizations, vendors, and activities for you to eat, shop, and goof around.

WAB Leavers' Farewell Celebration, 2pm: A special event for our families and friends leaving WAB, we hope you'll join us as we celebrate your time with the WAB community. Leaving families are invited to come to the Chinese Garden outside of the Elementary School for a family portrait, a special gift, and to sign up for the WAB Alumni Network. WAB's Director will also be there to share a few remarks and cut a cake to wish you all farewell.

Fun Fair, 3-6pm: Tiger Field turns into a wild theme park of inflatable play areas, water games, and activities. Sponsored by our Parent Link community, this is the perfect time for our younger children and families to enjoy some fun in the sun while staying cool. Make sure your chidlren are wearing water-friendly clothes and shoes, and a hat and sunglasses might be good ideas, too! Parents, please contact [e-mail] if you'd like to volunteer even just one hour on the day of event!

WAB Alumni Reunion, 8:30pm: WAB Alumni students, families, and staff are invited to join us at Fella's for Rock off the Park. This is a great chance to catch up with old friends over a few light snacks.
