This weekend, we kicked off the school term with a whole range of wonderful and exciting activities 💕

From climbing, to wake boarding, and everything in the between, these wonderful activities were thoroughly enjoyed by our girls 🧗‍♀️ 🏄‍♀️

Lucy & Ava joined the wake boarding activity, and clearly had a real talent for it! 🌊

We are so lucky to be located so close to Lake Geneva, and when the sun is shining with 30 degrees heat, its the perfect place to enjoy some downtime 🌞

We are already excited to see what next weekend will bring 💫

Dinner on Wednesdays is special because we eat food from other countries, and last night, we enjoyed the delicious flavors of Switzerland.

International Dinners at Collège du Léman celebrate diversity and serve as a reminder of the shared experiences and flavors from around the world. It’s also a time for our students to bond over their love of food! What culinary adventure will we embark on next week? Stay tuned for more!

Last night, we had our first Boarding Assembly, which was a lovely occasion. Many new and familiar faces were dressed quite formally for the event. The assembly was led by our Boarding Director, Mr. Usher. The topics covered included tips for the upcoming year, the Wellbeing Programme, Student Voice, trips, activities, and more. We want to extend a special thanks to Valentina, who opened the assembly by playing a wonderful piece, Chopin’s Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2, on the piano.

We are thrilled to welcome you to the start of the new academic year at Villa Dégallier 56 !

Upon arrival, you will be greeted by Mrs. Floss at the airport, who is eagerly looking forward to welcoming you in person. Meanwhile, at Villa Dégallier 56, Mrs. Bea is warmly welcoming our girls and their families with some delicious Swiss chocolates and a variety of Swiss cheeses. We are thrilled to have all of you as part of our big CDL Family 

From now on, Villa Dégallier 56will be your Swiss boarding school home, and we are here to support you every step of the way.

Welcome to your new home and family ! !

Today, Marcela was lucky enough to go Tandem Paragliding here in Switzerland ✨

Thankfully she had good weather, the clouds literally cleared the second they were in flight mode, meaning she had beautiful views over Lake Geneva and it’s surroundings 🌎

Marcela said it was an amazing experience, something she will never forget! ⭐

It’s been one week and we are still reminiscing about the endless celebrations from last weekend.

Below are some photos and videos of our graduates at prom and the official graduation ceremony 👩‍🎓🎉

We are beyond proud of their achievements, both academic and personal. Not only have they have worked incredibly hard to reach this point, but they leave CDL with memories & friendships to last a lifetime 💕

We can’t wait to see what they will get up to during this next chapter of their lives and whatever they choose to do, we have no doubt they will fully embrace this part of their journey ✨

Best of luck to our wonderful leavers,

The World Is Your Oyster 🌎⭐
