Security:

We live in a world where we can never be too careful therefore we implore our parents to work with us to ensure the safety of our children at every point in time. There is need to educate our children on the need to be security conscious. We believe secondary school students can go home by themselves, apart from those that use the school bus. Parents who do not want their children to go home by themselves should inform the school by writing.

Exeat from Boarding School: The management will no longer tolerate parents coming to pick their child/ward from the hostel indiscriminately. Exeat could only be given on health grounds.
