Charity Football Tournament !


We are so happy to say that many of our boys played at the Charity Football Tournament this evening. They had the chance to compete between houses and show their talent, while contributing to the fund raising. We always are glad to see them being so involved in our community. Amazing job boys !

Plenty more weekend activities for the Léman boys!!

Spring is upon us and the Léman boys took full advantage of the blue skies and beautifully fresh weather this weekend.

There were plenty of opportunities for the students to enjoy a vast amount of sports and activities this weekend. Some of the acitivities on offer included; Tennis, Climbing, Running, Handball, Boxing, Pilates, and many more!!

Philosophy Society Journal

The Spring Seasonal Issue of the Philosophy Society Journal is now out. Once again we feel inspired by Otabek’s participation and interest about the perhaps most ancient human science, so linked to our human nature.

Feel free to explore this issue.

 

Ramadan Mubarak

As the journey begins tonight we have prepared a festive breakfast for our Leman boys. We offer our support and care in the following month along their path.

Wishes of a Blessed Ramadan to all.

Another amazing weekend in Leman

This weekend has been another full weekend of activities, clubs and fun. Our boys have been able to play tennis, cook with the chef, climb the indoor climbing wall, participate in the running club, and even practice a bit of basketball. On Sunday, we again had the opportunity to enjoy the snow in Verbier with the ski club, where they had a great time. As usual, they participated in the eSports club where they play Fortnite and Fifa, practicing against each other in tournaments, and in the Chess Club where they continued to improve their strategies. As a special activity they have made an escape room, some have been fast enough and others have been at the gates of finishing it and escaping.

International Women’s Day March

This Friday was 8 March, International Women’s Day. This weekend, a march was organized to support the feminist movement. We all marched through the streets of Versoix wearing purple t-shirts to remember the work that has been done so far and what still needs to be done.

Geneva Motor Show

This weekend, our students had the fantastic opportunity to visit the annual Geneva Motor Show. The spectacle was as impressive as ever with many incredible cars on display. The Léman boys who attended the outing, said they enjoyed it very much.

The amazing trip to Winter Wonderland

I think Finland was very good, I really enjoyed this trip. On the first day, we saw the aurora borealis in the early hours of the morning, but what I still remember is wearing snowshoes to hike a small mountain. These snowshoes were so large that increased the force area, so it was not easy to fall into the snow. Every day there was free time to go out with friends,  do some activities, play some games or go to the sauna. I went to it with my friends one evening so we can get rid of the day’s fatigue. My conclusion is that the school trip to Finland was amazing.

Math Competition in Vienna

Last weekend, Apollo, Ignacy and I went on a “trip” to Vienna. It was not only a trip but also for the maths competition ISMTF. On Saturday, we spent our whole day in Vienna university with a lot of people from other international schools. We did both individual and team rounds. The competition was very intense as we have to solve 5 problems in 10 minutes. When the result was being released, we hold our breath. Apollo and I both got Top 10 out of 195! We were so happy to have this result in our first year. It was such a great experience!

The Winter Camp in Crans Montana

A hugely successful week for 70 Boarding and Day students in Crans-Montana. Staff and students enjoyed an action packed week of skiing, snowboarding, tobogganing, ice skating and more.

A big thank you to the Camps Department for organising such a fun and exciting program!

February break

We will back shortly, after a quick week to recharge batteries.

Many of the boys are now heading home, quite a few lucky ones are heading to Crans-Montana for the Winter Camp… and one very lucky boy from Léman is heading to the Artic Circle on the exciting Finland trip.

We will back with news, photos and accounts of their adventures.

Until then, enjoy this time 🙂

The Léman team

 

Last weekend before the February Break!

This weekend we had our usual activities again. Our boys took part in tennis, climbing and horse riding. They also went to running, chess, history and drama clubs. This weekend there was also ski club, this time they went to Verbier. New this weekend was the eSports club where several of them got together to play Fortnite and Fifa as a team. As you can see, we have activities for everyone. The boys have had time to rest and enjoy their last weekend before the holidays.

Ice Hockey Star

Every weekend, our boy from Leman, Apollo, plays ice hockey with the Geneva team, Geneve-Servette Associattion. Sometimes he plays in Geneva and sometimes he plays away. So far they are doing well in the league, we will see how they finish, but we are still very proud of what our boy from Leman is achieving.

Let’s go Servette!

🏮 Gong Xi Fa Cai! Happy Lunar New Year ! 🏮

Gong Xi Fa Cai (Wish you a very prosperous new year with fortune), is a popular phrase used to wish Happy New Year in Chinese Tradition.

The year 2024 is the Dragon year. According to the Chinese tradition, those born in the Dragon years are charismatic, ambitious and successful.

Our Leman boys prepared and celebrated the occasion inviting many of their friends and cooked, laughed and made a festive feast for each other. Great to see people from different nationalities coming together to celebrate the Lunar New Year.

 

“A Musician cannot move others unless he too is moved” C.P.E.Bach

Today Apollo inspired us with a Musical Performance, bringing sounds of Chinese traditional Music to our Eiger Auditorium.

He performed on a Hulusi flute which is a Chinese wind instrument made of a gourd and bamboo. It has been said to sound like bagpipes but unlike the bagpipe these pipes can be opened and closed. The reed resonator acts as an air pressure reservoir and allows the notes to be deeply bent – the Hulusi flute is in fact a chromatic instrument because the microtones in between the holes are all accessible.

The special ability to bend notes makes the Hulusi a highly expressive instrument which we clearly heard in Apollo’s performance tonight.

Thank you Apollo for sharing your Music with us.

 

Benvenuti a Roma !


This week-end our students had the amazing opportunity to take part in the trip to Rome. They had a lovely time where they spent it between italian culture & food, fun and of course shopping. They had to the chance to visit the Museum of Vatican and the famous Sistine Chapel. What an enriching trip !

SECOND PLACE CDL !!

Congratulations to the Léman basketball team who won the second place at the tournament against Zurich International School !!! We are particularly proud of our two boys, Teodoro and Roi who did an amazing job in the team. They are not only making us proud but the whole school.
