Happy birthday Aryavir. Today was your day; a nice lie-in, in the morning, an afternoon walk in Versoix and a tasty chocolate cake with your friends for the evening.

We all wish you the best for all the years to come 😀

The first pillar of our Well Being programme is now being launched.

We consider Well Being a core element of what we do in Boarding. Well Being is the basis to everything and even above grades and academic or sport achievements we care and strive to ensure all the students are feeling well, in their bodies, in their minds, with their choices and with their friends.

The Well Being programme is scheduled to run along the school year and for each term, a different pillar will deserve our focus and work.

In this first half-term of the year, we will direct our energies particularly to Nurturing Healthy Minds and Bodies with a particular emphasis towards Emotional Regulation.

How will we work? During the weeks to come, we will be discussing and directing students to a personal reflection on these topics and we will encourage them to develop some individual projects. These projects will aim at leading the student to reflect on his or her habits, see how they benefit their Well Being and extend this perception with the help of some creative activities.

Examples: Keeping a sleeping diary or take the time for a nature walk and see observe the nature.

Likewise we will develop some community projects, normally based by House but with the possibility of linking them to other Houses.

What we aim at, is leading the students to reflect and integrate these activities as part of their lives and encourage them to reflect so they can perceive the Take-Away points of such actions.

There are no right or wrong projects, as long as they lead the student to internally assimilate the benefits he can get from this or that activity. These projects can be based on habits the students already have and sometimes they didn’t even realize how beneficial they were.

Reflection and projection of the “me” are the key points.

And soon we will return with more specifics on what is going on 😉 Watch this space 🙂

Dear Parents and friends of Léman 2,

We are ready to welcome the boys back into the Boarding Life and are looking forward to the new year.

Have a safe journey!

Like in everything in life, changes happen when needed… It is my pleasure to introduce Mr Tomasino Bartanusz to every student and friend of the Léman 2 community.

Mr Tomasino will be a new face for our students. He was previously working with the primary boarders and has now accepted to move to a Senior House in a direct swap with Mr Tarun who has found as well a passion for the work with the primary boys.

Also, Mr Rob has now moved to Concha Blanca working with the Juniors. I know many will be surprised by these changes but I am sure they will be positive for all the sides and I am delighted that Mr Tomasino is now in Léman 2. He has a lot of experience, he is multilingual, totally dedicated and the most important… he also has an accurate sense of humour 🙂

I know we will all make him feel welcome and we will have a great time together.

We are back… and it feels good to be back.

As we approach the first day of school, the team is already working to make the arrivals as welcoming and smooth as possible.

We have made it through the tense and uncertain times and we are looking forward to the near future with positivity and energy to make this year as fantastic as possible, hoping our students will also come refreshed and with a great drive to make the best of what’s ahead.

One can’t deny that things are slightly different and changes are still required so we can all adapt to the new situation and always thinking of everybody’s safety and well-being… This should not stop us however from enjoying every single day. Our focus is, as always, in our boys who we are looking forward to welcoming soon.

See you all soon and have a safe trip 🙂
