Tonight was our first boarding assembly, and it was a blast! We kicked off the term with lots of energy and wrapped it up with a cozy Swiss dinner that had everyone in high spirits. Huge cheers to our awesome prefects, Marina, Anna and Etoile , for stepping up as leaders. And an extra shoutout to Etoile , who’s now our Head Girl, an achievement that reflects her exceptional commitment and character.

Welcome back, everyone! We’re excited to let you know that the house officially opens tomorrow, August 19th. We can’t wait to see all of you and kick off another amazing year together! See you soon!

Lots of love,

Aida & Yewande

The boarding house is now closed for summer, bringing a well-deserved break. We hope the girls relax, enjoy their time off, and have lots of fun. Wishing everyone a wonderful vacation. We look forward to seeing you all in August!

Lots of love,

Last Sunday, boarders celebrated the end of classes with a fun-filled day of games, laughter, and treats. Exciting activities like bungee jumping, foosball, foam in the garden, swimming, Sumo wrestling, and more provided a lovely break from studying for their exams and kept everyone entertained. The pool and water slide provided thrilling, cooling fun, while an ice cream stand offered a variety of refreshing flavors.

This end-of-year celebration was a perfect reminder of the importance of community, fun, and making the most of every moment.

As a house parent, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing countless moments of growth, joy, and discovery within the walls of our home. Throughout the year, I watched these young individuals grow, facing triumphs and struggles with resilience and determination. Late-night study sessions, heart-to-heart conversations, and even the occasional disciplinary talk — each of these instances was an opportunity for growth and learning.

Our house became more than just a place to sleep and study; it became a home. We shared meals, celebrated birthdays, and supported each other through thick and thin. The bonds formed within these walls are strong and lasting. We laughed together, cried together, and ultimately, grew together.

Seeing my students walk across the stage to receive their diplomas is a testament to their hard work and perseverance.While I am excited for the adventures that await them, I will miss their presence, their laughter, and even the occasional chaos that comes with living in a house full of young energy. Our home will feel different, quieter, but I know it’s all part of the beautiful cycle of growth and change.

To Gia, Martina, Melissa, Stacy, Zia and Zoya: thank you for letting me be a part of your journey. You have taught me as much as I have hoped to teach you. I have no doubt that you will continue to inspire and achieve great things. Remember, you always have a home here, a place where you are loved and supported unconditionally.

As you step out into the world, carry with you the lessons learned, the friendships forged, and the confidence that you are capable of achieving your dreams. The future is bright, and it is yours for the taking. Congratulations, graduates—go out and shine!

With love and pride,

Aida & Yewande

We are beyond excited to share that our house has won the boarding photo competition! The theme, “Home at CDL,” challenged us to capture the essence of what makes this campus feel like our second home. Our goal was to highlight the places and moments that embody comfort, belonging, and a sense of family.

In our photo, we showcased the warmth and togetherness that define our life at Louis Yung. Winning this competition is a testament to the unique bond we share. It’s about more than just the image; it’s about the collective spirit, the friendships that feel like family, and the strong sense of belonging that turns our campus into a home

A huge thank you to everyone in our house who participated and contributed their creativity and enthusiasm. Your efforts have beautifully captured what “Home at CDL” means to us. Let’s continue to make every day memorable and uphold the wonderful spirit that led us to this victory.

Here’s to more moments of joy, unity, and success!

Lots of Love,

Yewande

Welcome to our recap of last week’s May Fitness Challenge! Here’s a quick look at the fun and engaging activities we tackled:

Tuesday: Held a one-leg pose with a partner, testing balance and teamwork.

Wednesday: Catch and clap challenge, where we tossed a ball, clapped, and caught it again.

Thursday: Keepy-uppys with a football, juggling it as many times as possible without letting it touch the ground.

Friday: Jumping jacks challenge, counting how many we could do in 30 seconds.

Saturday: Timed squats with a twist—10 squats with a water bottle balanced on our heads.

Sunday: Finished the week strong with a 5K run, testing endurance and stamina.

Great job to everyone who participated! Get ready for another week of fun challenges. Stay fit and keep moving!

Day 3 of the May fitness challenge brought us face-to-face with a quirky yet engaging task: jumping over a pillow as many times as possible in one minute. Gabi, despite feeling full and possibly facing a less-than-ideal outcome, bravely took on the challenge.

Fast forward to Day 4, where the challenge morphed into an “around the world” affair. Zia, Martina, Melissa, Gabi, and myself eagerly took up the gauntlet, discovering that what seemed simple was, in fact, surprisingly challenging.

Lots of Love,

Aida & Yewande

Tonight was awesome! We all got together in the boarding house kitchen to cook dinner. With our aprons on and utensils ready, we dove into cooking. There was laughter, chopping, and stirring as we shared stories and worked together. The kitchen buzzed with energy and the smell of delicious food.

Gathering around the table, we dug into the meal we made together. We shared jokes, exchanged stories, and maybe even gave some questionable advice, but it was all part of the fun. These spontaneous moments of connection are what make cooking together in the boarding house so special.
