New Portena Christmas Party ๐Ÿฅณ and Secret Santa gifts exchange ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ’

Yesterday evening we organized a Boarding House Christmas Party including Secret Santa gifts exchange ๐ŸŽ: indeed during the last weeks New Portena girls made a list of the gift they wished to receive and yesterday they got them. This has been a wonderful way to strengthen their bonds.

Have a look at this video where our students wish Merry Christmas to everyone in their own language. ๐Ÿ™‚

Happy holidays girls, we wish all of you to spend wonderful moments during this break and get from New Year everything you desire! ๐ŸŒ 

Winter Ball ๐ŸŽถโœจ

Last Saturday December 09 all the students from Collรจge du Lรฉman went to the Hilton hotel in Geneva to join the Winter Ball, an elegant event to celebrate all together the first months of the academic year as well as the end of 2023.

During this night filled with shiny lights and smart attire all the New Portena students had a lot of fun. ๐Ÿ’ƒ

Gnocchi day ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น

Promoting internationalism among students is important for us to let the girls know about other cultures and traditions. Having a big House with girls from seventeen nationalities is a great opportunity to involve them in activities that can enrich them.

Before the Winter holidays, we have decided to have a convivial moment all together: we kneaded gnocchi dough, cooked, and ate together. Special thanks to Gergana for making also original hearth-shaped gnocchi ๐Ÿคฉ
