Arabic Club
WIHS took the intuitive to enhance our students Arabic skills by helping them to learn and excel in the Arabic language. The aim of the club is not to teach Arabic literacy but about speech performance. Our future goal is to help the students achieve positive, confidant and proper public speaking skills. This club will be led by Mrs.Asma, every Friday after Jumaa prayer.
Robotics Club
A robotics club is a gathering of students who are interested in learning about and working with robots. At WIHS, the Robotics Club typically takes place after school, in the Robotics Lab, and is moderated by the specialist Mr. Anwar Shahid.
At the robotics competition, teams of students must design and build a robot that can compete against opponents in a series of specific challenges.
Students develop and program their robot in the weeks before the event, adhering to list of preset rules and regulations. Much like traditional sporting events, these robotics competitions draw large crowds who gather to see which robot will best perform the task it has set out to complete.

Morning Announcements Club
Each day, an opportunity is given to two students to make the daily announcement. These students are not from a specific grade, as we like to involve everyone. Our daily announcements are a crucial part of the day. They remind students of things like school policies and rules. Upcoming events, seminars, workshops, meetings, and trips are also spoken about. Important issues such as the Terry Fox Run, Breast Cancer Awareness, Rowans Law, etc. are highlighted. Our yearly calendar is full of special internal events like “Twin Day”, “Hoodie/Hat Day” etc. which our club is always enthusiastic to mention to their fellow students! Our Student Council is responsible for this club and is supervised by Ms.Warda.
