CWBS requires a daily uniform. For daily wear, the uniform includes a girls' navy skirt or trousers with the logo or a boys' navy shorts or trousers with the logo, with white socks and black shoes; a jumper and windbreaker are worn as appropriate, and a CWBS hat (Legionnaires or Australian style) is used for outdoor activities. The PE kit is a CWBS short-sleeved house-coloured T-shirt with navy shorts, white trainers and socks; a track-suit is optional, and uniforms can be bought secondhand from the PTA Green Hub or new from the online shop at schooluniform.hk, with try-on samples available at the PTA Office.
CWBS provides hot lunches via Zebratasty; meals are prepared off-site and delivered to classrooms. Orders are placed through Zebratasty's online portal. Many students also bring packed lunches from home.
CWBS uses a four-house system named after Chinese dragons: Jialong, Shenlong, Dilong, and Yinglong. Each house has two captains (one boy and one girl) and two vice-captains (one boy and one girl), who are selected by teachers and lead house activities and weekly House Cup points.
CWBS is part of the English Schools Foundation (ESF). Admissions are handled centrally through ESF.
