      Hi, needed advice.

      For Boarding, do we need to prepare own Bed/Pillow cases ? I assume pillow/bolster will be provided ? How about blanket ?

      Oh, hi šŸ™‚ For boarding pillow cases and bed sheets are provided(which students are required to change every week). A blanket is provided as well. However, we have to bring out own pillows and bolsters there as they are not provided.

      Oh, got to bring own pillow and bolster, then no difference to also bringing own cases ?? Serious or not ? So bulky....
      For laundry, we can send uniforms/ PE attire / towel right ? What is the limit as in number of pieces you can send ?

For laundry that is fine, and there should be a limit of 17 pieces per week if I'm not wrong.

          Oh, the matron will check ? Ok. They provide 1 pillow and 1 bolster and 1 bedsheet per week ?
          17 pieces per week is pretty little. Casual Tshirts and shorts is already 2 pieces per day. Mon - Thurs will mean 8 pieces for that. Then, blouse and skirt also 2 pieces per day, haven't even count the PE attire and Polo T.
          Mmmmm.....

            Oh no just 2 pillow cases and 2 bed sheets(which needs to be changed weekly). Bolster cases are not provided. And yes, I agree, but I only send my uniform for laundry service as I can bring enough clothes to last the week and also use the washing machine for my casual clothes.
