Happy Birthday Gigi ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ’“

Dear Gigi,

You brought a shine of light in the middle of the academic year, by coming to Collรจge du Lรฉman, with your great desire to discover the school, make friendships and attend a lot of activities such as yoga, pilates, horse riding, crochet club and drama club.

Since yesterday we had the pleasure to celebrate your special day, we want to extend to you our warmest wishes for a Happy Birthday.

Boarding House Photo Competition: “Home at CDL” ๐Ÿ“ธ

At New Portena, the theme for this yearโ€™s photo competition was “Home at CDL.” Our entry captured a beloved tradition: every Wednesday, Ms. Fana makes us pancakes, a ritual that has become a cherished part of our New Portena family. This weekly event not only fills our stomachs but also warms our hearts, perfectly embodying our sense of home at CDL. ๐Ÿฅžโค๏ธ

Here’s to celebrating the little moments that make our boarding house truly special! ๐ŸŒŸ

Trip to Porto, dog sitting and Luna Park… What a full interesting weekend! ๐Ÿคฉ

Since there was no school today, the girls had more time to engage in activities they enjoy:

๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡น Lulu, Ashley and Vladi went to Porto for a school weekend trip and they visited Coimbra, Aveiro, Rio Douro and Gaia;

๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ•ย Hanna pursued her passion for animals by meeting two other lovely dogs, Preyston and Wendy;

๐ŸŽข Meli, Yufei, Adela, Bice and Mei Mei went to Luna Park for a fun-filled day.

 

Exploring Venice with Yufei ๐ŸŽญ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น

Our very own Yufei had a blast over the Ascension weekend, joining the school trip to Venice. ๐Ÿ›ถ

After the arrival at Venice airport, the students strolled through the city and had a tasty pizza dinner. The next day, they explored Doge’s Palace, enjoyed lunch at Hard Rock Cafe, and had free time to take in Venetian sights, including gondola rides. On the third day, the students also visited Murano Island to witness glassmaking, and explored Fenice Theater. They ended this final day with shopping and dinner.

An unforgettable adventure filled with culture, history, and fun! โœจ

Bice’s birthday ๐ŸŽˆ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŽ‚

During these years Bice has become an important community member for everyone around her. As we have celebrated her birthday a few days ago, we wish to take a moment to reflect on all the memories we have shared together: since when she arrived at Collรจge du Lรฉman until this year when she has joined the National Honor Society.

Once again, Happy Birthday, dear Bice ๐Ÿ˜˜

Discovering new passions ๐Ÿ’“๐Ÿคฉ

We are incredibly proud of our students for eagerly diving into new activities and discovering passions they never knew they could have had. Ana Cristina, Pau, and Camila’s excitement after one of their first art club activities is indeed truly heartwarming.

Moreover, witnessing Gergana discovering boxing as a new passion and watching at her eyes shining while saying “I will always go” speaks volume about the importance of trying something new and reminds us the power of stepping outside our comfort zone.
