Architect Patrick Lau's award-winning design created a ten-story building with modern amenities such as classrooms, laboratories, an auditorium and a 25-meter indoor swimming pool. WIS has continuously invested in facilities to accommodate growing student numbers, with renovations and expansions culminating in the addition of a fourth block in September 2003.
Spanning Years 7 to 13, WIS provides a seamless continuum of education for students aged 10–19 years.
