What is my child expected to bring to school everyday?
A bag containing the followings:
- Notebooks (Depending on their age group)
- Pencil case with a black pencil, a rubber, a sharpener and color pencils
- Water Bottle
- Extra clothes and a towel when it is rainy
Although Arki provides pencils, color pencils, rubbers, etc, for the students but we really would love the students to practice the sense of responsibility and for sure they all enjoy having their own things and learning to take care of their belongings.
