In order to provide students with the opportunity to participate in more activities to express their solidarity and love, the Western Australian International School System (WASS) will organize a Mid-Autumn Festival with the theme of “Wonderland of Adventures under the Sparkling Stars”.

The festival became even more attractive with a series of free activities at traditional booths, such as overcoming obstacles, making tortoise shells, walking on stilts, and so on taking place at Tan Cang restaurant (Binh Thanh District).
