In this dorm, students can enjoy spending time in a common room featuring art, natural light, a brick accent wall and big hanging lamps. Rooms are spacious, with large windows that look into the woods. Some rooms have their own spiral staircase!

Dorm parents and prefects (student leaders) also live in each dormitory. To ensure a smooth move-in process, WMA created a checklist of things boarding students need to bring. Items provided in each dorm include beds, desks, bureaus and chairs. All dormitories also supply irons, washing and drying machines. TVs, DVD players and microwaves are available in common room areas.

We encourage students to make their rooms feel like home. They may choose to add personal touches like posters, bedding and other decorations to create their dream room.
