Spooky Season is Upon Us!

Our Concha kids celebrated Halloween in style! We started with a delicious fondue dinner, bringing warmth and smiles. Then, they unleashed their creativity by carving spooky pumpkins, now proudly displayed for all to see. Finally, dressed in their best costumes, they went trick-or-treating, sharing treats and making memories. A night full of festive fun!

Carving pumpkins is a team mission

As October Falls

Have a look at a few photos from the last few days of October.

As the fog rolls in and the leaves begin to tumble, the house starts to get cozier and cozier.

Back Into the Flow of Things!

The Concha boys are back and diving into study hall, bringing a fresh focus and energy to the house. It’s great to see everyone settling in, supporting each other, and returning to the rhythm. Here’s to a productive term ahead—let’s keep this momentum going!

 

Tanzania Mania!

This Fall break three of our boys, Jiarui, Eduardo and Enrique went on an adventure across Tanzania!

Not only did they explore their beautiful surroundings, they also helped the community and learned some new skills in the process.

Have A Lovely Autumn Break!

Dear all,

We would like to wish you all an excellent break!

To our Boys: Get plenty of rest so that you’re back fully recharged and raring to go! The second half of this semester is going to be awesome!

To our Parents: We wish you an enjoyable holiday with your son! It has been a pleasure having him with us these busy last 7 weeks.

With so much going on, there’s a simple way to keep track of it all, receive quick updates about the various goings-on here at Collège du Léman, and get access to important contacts and information, just click here –> The CDL News app!

Have a great Autumn Break!

Best,

The Concha Team

 

Before the Leaves Fall: Last Day in the House Before the Break! 🍂

Time flies, especially when all the experiences lived are full of joy!

We still remember the very first days when our Concha boys were gradually arriving. Some of them were more talkative, others barely spoke, were homesick or simply trying to get used to living in a completely different environment that was not the norm for them. However, time has passed by and a friendly international community has been formed in the Boarding House.

In order to make the most of this last day, the kids have tried to spend as much quality time together as possible: at lunch, in Olympus or in the house! We organised a house sleepover in the living room for their last memory before the Autumn Break to be unforgettable.

See you in two weeks, lads! 👋🏻

Friday Dinner Whilst Some Depart for TANZANIA 🇹🇿

As the break approaches and the school winds down, we find ourselves heading to one of Versoix’s finest establishments for some soul food—fried chicken and great conversations. It was the perfect send-off for our Conchsters.

Meanwhile, a few of our Concha residents have set off on an exciting journey to Tanzania for a week of adventure and service. We wish them safe travels and look forward to hearing their stories in just two short weeks.

Wednesday Before the Break

The fellas and I ventured out to explore some local trails on our newly restored mountain bikes after study hall today. We embraced the adventure, even if some of us ended up muddy—it’s all part of the fun!

Shunyu our resident basket-balling star balled out in CDL’s victory over Champittet today.

Sunday Activities

Sunday in Concha’s been a blast we got plenty of rest and relaxation with some great activities sprinkled on top!
