Sunday Fun and Return to School 🏫

On Sunday, our Concha boys joined in for a morning of fun before heading back to school.  They tackled Parcour, mastering agility, and teamwork through exciting obstacle courses.  In the Survival session, they learned key wilderness skills like shelter-building.  Creativity shone during Land Art, where they used nature as their canvas, and they wrapped up with Nature Journaling, capturing the beauty of their surroundings.

Saturday Mountain Weekend Shenanigans

Today was a day packed with excitement and adventure as Concha Boarding House, along with the whole CDL community, embraced the great outdoors in Leysin. With perfect weather and stunning mountain views, everyone had the chance to break free from the daily routine and dive into an array of thrilling outdoor activities.

 

September Boarding Assembly And International Dinner

This evening we had our September Boarding Assembly, where we watched a lovely video of the first few weeks, listened while two of our students discussed the triathlon they completed and introduced our first well-being pillar related to exercise and healthy habits (more to come!)

We also enjoyed Lebanese cuisine for this weeks International dinner!

Middle School Monday Start ⏰

Our high school students embarked on their Discovery Week today, while our middle schoolers resumed classes. After a day of learning and study hall, our students had the chance to unwind with a game of soccer!

A Neighborly Visit

This morning the lads from Champ des Bois graced us with their presence, and we enjoyed a few hours of Frisbee, American Football, and getting the boomerang stuck in the trees (it’s still up there somewhere!)

Mana spotted a large camera and decided to be our photographer. Just have a look at his lovely shots!

Activities Galore on a Sunny Saturday in Switzerland 🇨🇭

The boys got some well-deserved rest, sleeping in before the activities began. The Conchsters headed out to wakeboard on the glassy waters of Lake Léman, while others took on the climbing wall and badminton court.

It was a day to remember, and I invite you all to take a glimpse at our unforgettable experience!

Variety Is The Spice of Life!

On this fine Friday evening, our Concha lads were all doing something a bit different, but having fun together nonetheless.
