WCA supports students at;

1) Christopher Whitehead Language College

1) WCA has contact with Christopher Whitehead Language College, where students are learning Mandarin. For the last two years, our Association has hosted a dinner for Students, Staff & parents to assist and encourage students in learning Mandarin. This includes printing a special menu in Mandarin & encouraging the students to order their food & drinks in Mandarin & talk to Mandarin speaking guests. This year, the dinner was held on 11th April and the evening included a quiz on China and three talks on experiences with China from two Chinese Nationals, Don Lee & Frankie Tsang and HJ Colston, Joint CEO of the Chopsticks Club, a Mandarin speaker who first visited in 1985 & has worked there since. The Headteacher of the College was also present, along with Abbie Lu, Mandarin Language Assistant.
