Thank you to everyone that came out for today’s PW Mini Interview Day! 🧩 We had 100 grade 7s come through our doors, sharing stories of their love for crafts, horseback riding, chess, squash, and so much more. So many bright eyed and eager kids — this will be a tough decision for us to make as we narrow down our Class of 2031 to just 28 students.
