School shoes should be mostly white, either synthetic leather or canvas are allowed. White shoes with coloured logos are discouraged.
Can the parents accompany the child throughout the 1st day of school?
Parents are not allowed to accompany the student on the 1st day of school. This is to acclimatize your child to their new school and routines. Please be rest assured that our team of teachers will be with your child.
