Below is a collection of information that has proved useful to students in the past. Although this page is entitled ‘Information for New Students’, we hope that some of the information will be helpful to our returning students as well.

GIFTS for families
In general it is always advisable to bring a gift for your family. Some ideas for gifts include tablecloths, pictures and pretty much anything having to do with your place of residence. However, it is highly inappropriate to give money directly to the families, and we suggest that alcohol not be given.
INTERNET
All students can use the computers at the school to access to the internet/ wireless access available, and there is hookup for personal laptops
