As a part of our wellbeing programme, we have worked throughout this first month of the year on the pillar “Building Positive Friendships”.

Our house is a good example of International friendships, they all respect each other and make an effort to understand the others’ cultures. This is the best place to exchange culture and learn from other countries.

They did so well and had thoughtful outcomes that they will be sharing them in our monthly boarding assembly.

The boys spent another amazing weekend in the Swiss Alps.  Micha, Jamil & Lyam went skiing on both days, while Armin was Snowboarding.

Diego played Bowling on Saturday morning, enjoyed some sports games in the afternoon and did climbing on Sunday.

Taha left for a passionate excursion for the whole day on Saturday and did some sports games on Sunday.

All 6 of them came back very tired but also very happy .

Our first weekend at Fiesch was lovely and we had loads of bliss and fun.

We were extremely blessed with very good weather and the slopes were clear.

Lyam and Misha skied with the advanced and had a good time on the slopes.

Armin went Snowboarding and he kept learning about it.

Taha had a great time playing bowling.

Diego visited Brig and the thermal baths.

A top-notch weekend. Looking forward to the next one.

As we approach the new lunisolar year, it will be on Sunday 22, and our visitors prepared a Chinese event held on Wednesday.

And of course, our students are looking forward for the first ski weekend of the season.

This was our first weekend all together as the Concha Annexe Boarding House in 2023 !!!
The boys took part in different activities;

• Diego tried Climbing, for the first time in his life, and he really enjoyed this sport that requires focus, precision and  a lot of coordination.
• Jamil is a regular member of the Running Club on Saturday mornings. We have the chance to have a running path way that follow the river La Versoix. It gives  the opportunity to the students to do sport in nature.
• On Sunday, Armin, Lyam, Micha, Taha and Jamil went to an Escape Room Game in Geneva. in spite of our team effort and hard work , we still didn’t menage to beat the room and go out in less than an our. We will try better next time.

Tonight we had our first dinner in the House altogether.
We shared an Indian meal based on Rice and Vegetables.
We explained to them the importance of trying different types of food and took a moment to discuss our thoughts about spicy food. Each one of us had a different appreciation of what is “too spicy” 🙂

After a good, well-deserved and long break, students have returned to CDL to dive into semester 2. They are ready to keep living experiences in the school and outside the school, next two weeks, we will be skiing in Fiesch (VS).
