Weybridge International School of English (WISE) are inviting au pairs and their families for a special celebration on Friday (November 22).

A celebration and cultural exchange with refreshments included is being hosted at WISE to mark International Au Pair Day on Friday.

2019 is a special year for au pairs in that it marks 50 years since the signing of the 'European agreement on au pair placements' by the Council of Europe in 1969.

The framework provided guidelines and rules for au pair placements across the continent.

International Au Pair Day is an initiative of The International Au Pair Association (IAPA), and was presented at the IAPA’s Annual General Meeting in Luxembourg in March 2019.

The inaugural event is being celebrated around the globe, and WISE in Weybridge are joining in.

Of tomorrow's celebration, a spokesperson for the English school said:

"WISE and Square AuPair are inviting local au pairs and host families, to join in the morning celebration of international cultural exchange which starts at 10am and is planned to finish around 12pm. Refreshments will be provided.

"Do drop in any time between 10am-12pm to meet other au pairs and take part in this international event at WISE, 6 Baker Street, Weybridge."

WISE offer 'General English (all levels) and Cambridge exam English classes' to international students from many countries including Germany, Italy, Spain, Russia and Korea.
