WAB runs the WABX co-curricular programme with several hundred club, language, service and sporting options and includes student-led activities such as Model UN, a student magazine (Inkblot), and robotics teams. The school's language instruction is in English and it offers curricular language programmes in Chinese, French and Spanish, with several home‑language programs available. Note: the campus latitude/longitude below was taken from public mapping sources because WAB's website does not publish coordinates.
