      Just came back from check-in my boy :lol:


      We forgot to bring uniforms :oops: Hubby had to drive back, then sent to sch šŸ˜‰

      The bed mattress, mattress protector, pillowcase, mattress cover hv a funny smell. Anyone think so too? Found a few strands of hair on the mattress protector too :roll: Wonder whether my boy can sleep tonight :lol:

      Do your kid put the books on the hanging shelves above the study table? Or on the concrete ledge on the other end of the bed?

      The floor is quite dirty. Our soles are darkened.

      Hm, cant expect too much hor šŸ˜‰

      You so funny ... can forget to bring uniforms. Don't know about the bedding. Boys did their beds, I didn't notice smell. Anyway, I put a jar of air freshener-cum-insect-repellent. Seems quite pleasant. haha! The fan doesn't seem to cool much even at highest setting. ;(

      Books in the shelves on top of study table. They will study in the hall anyway, so not much studying done in room,right ?

      We had to clean all the tabletops and shelves before unpacking the stuff on, bc all so dusty and had spiderwebs, etc. And we mopped the room floor too.

      Why study in the dining hall? Is it that stuffy in the room? O.o :shock:

      Cheers!

        There is a designated supervised study time in the evening, and that's in the hall.

          Teachers might drop by.

            Think it depends on the facing of the rooms. My boy's study table in the room get the afternoon sun.

            There is only 1 set of windows in the room. If the room door is closed, it can get quite stuffy.

            Some students brou along standing fan during check-in on Sunday.

                  My boy sms me this afternoon telling me he would not hv sufficient change of uniforms. We only hv 3 sets (including the Polo T on Wed)


                  The free laundry svc works like this: submit dirty ones on Mon/Wed/Fri. Collection of cleaned ones on Wed/Fri. No wonder the boarding staff said hardly any student exceeds 17 pcs per week and told me can submit socks n underwear tge with the uniforms for free washing.

                      So I guess most of the doors left open? The rooms that the pupils were assigned depends on luck? Was there a ballot kind of thing for the rooms?

                        So if you submit on Fri you have to collect next Wed? Wow.
