  • All students should live at the school. Students from G1 and G2 have the option of staying at school or going home on every weekend. Students from G3 to G6 must stay at school on “odd weekends” since they have compulsory courses. They have the option of going home or staying at school on “even weekends”. During the summer and winter holidays, all dormitories will be closed and all the students are required to go back home.
