Open Day Press Release

Wellington College International Tianjin held its inaugural Open Day on Saturday, 15th January 2011.

The event was presided over by Mr David Cook, Founding Headmaster, Mr. Murray Fowler, Deputy Head and Mr John Zermani, Head of Junior School. A former Head Girl of Wellington College in the UK, Miss. Georgina Singer, was also on hand to give a memorable account of her time at Wellington. Miss Singer said, “By sending your children to Wellington you are not only providing them with a forward thinking learning experience, but also giving them an invaluable gateway into a global community of students and teachers past and present.”

The Open Day took place in Wellington’s new nursery building, while prospective parents and students were also given a guided tour of the main teaching building, striking in its resemblance to the architecture at the College in the UK. A large number of hard hats were required for the tour, as numbers at the Open Day far exceeded expectations. The construction of the College, due to open in August 2011, will be completed in May. All of the parents present were extremely positive about the facilities on show, and there was a widespread feeling of anticipation for the opening later this year. Mr Cook and everybody at the College wishes to thank everybody who attended the Open Day and all who participated in the event. 

Wellington will be holding its next Open Days on 26th February, 2nd April and 14th May. Places at the Open Days are limited and early booking is encouraged.
