There is also a co-operative laundry room on campus, where students can send their clothes to wash.

Q: Is there a school bus?
A: The school will provide a school bus service for non-boarding students. The particular route and other details will depend on the distribution of our students’ homes.

The bus fee will be determined after all applications are completed.

Q: How is the cafeteria food?
