Our second mountain weekend in Leysin was a blissful escape filled with exhilarating activities!
Under beautiful weather, we carved through slopes, raced down toboggan runs, skated on ice and took a swim in the thermal baths of Lavey!
The laughter, memories, and sheer fun created a weekend to cherish forever!
This week, our weekly meeting was focused on microaggressions.
The boys engaged in the meeting, by giving examples of these kinds of aggressions, we all dived into the best way to avoid them and answer them, but it all resumes to:
THINK BEFORE YOU TALK
IT IS NEVER TOO LATE FOR A HEARTFELT APOLOGY
Well done boys, we enjoyed this meeting very much.
Mr Manuel & Mr Tarun
Underneath blue skies and surrounded by fresh powder, our group indulged in a weekend packed with exhilarating activities.
As we bid Leysin farewell, our hearts are as full as a snow globe, shaking with gratitude for the memories made in this snowy paradise. Until the next snowfall, Leysin! ❄️⛷️🌨️
Positive friendships are an important part of the journey to adulthood. They help children and teenagers learn important social and emotional skills, like being sensitive to other people’s thoughts, feelings and wellbeing.
Have you ever taken a moment to reflect on the type of friend you are?
This week we continue our friendship journey by having an honest and open conversation with our friends about how we see each other and what are the things that makes us friends!
Special thanks to Andrew who helped with the presentation!
We have explored the qualities of the friends we would like to have, and now let’s shift our focus to introspection.
This past week, we delved into understanding the kind of friends we are. The boys had the opportunity to hear some opinions from the friends of the ladies in Louis Yung 7, and now their challenge for this week is to seek feedback from their own friends.
We kicked off 2024 at our Boarding Community, with a weekend filled with activities. Despite the remaining snow, we all managed to do something fun and retake our habits once again.
Bryan kept practicing tennis at a high level and Shaokun went for a second time to learn better how to play. Nikita kept going with Horse Riding. Finally, Adam and Kristian went to Laser tag, one of the most popular activities throughout the year and they enjoyed it very much.
This week, we kick off our third pillar led by Ms. Yewande and her wonderful team of Advocates, all the girls from Louis Yung 7. For the first stage, we are identifying the characteristics that you look for in a friend. The boys provided quick words in response; please see the poster below.
