Dear all,
Today we celebrated Sally’s birthday as soon as she was back from the weekend, where she celebrated her birthday with some friends and her family.
We hope you had an amazing day full of happiness and love.
Lots of love,

Hello everyone !
Despite being in the midst of the exams the girls managed to include in some exciting leisure activities last weekend, such as go-karting and golf, aside from their usual activities like baking and body shaping!
Love,
Tarri, Sarah, Maria, Ioanna and Fana
Dear all,
Summer is approaching in the beautiful city of Geneva and the girls took advantage of the sun and the good weather. Some of the girls attended their beloved Saturday morning activities: tennis and cooking, where they prepared Bolognese pasta; before heading to Geneva.
But the surprise arrived Saturday afternoon when we received THE call. Mr. Usher, our Head of Boarding, was looking for 6 students to go on a speedboat ride after lunchtime. Sara, Bice, Rin, and Cherry called Coco and He from Villa du Lac and they all headed to the lake to enjoy the good weather on the boat (they loved the speed).
From all the pictures we received and the big smiles on their faces when they came back, we think they really enjoyed it. (Mr. Usher, if you are reading this, they are looking forward to the next boat ride!!).
But unfortunately the weekend is coming to an end and the girls are back in the house getting ready for the start of the weekend.
Lots of love,
Terri, Sarah, Maria, Ioanna and Fana.
Dear all,
As exam season is coming, we want to make sure our students stay active and are taking breaks from time to time. For this, Mr. Rob and Mr. Rodrigo have created the May Fitness Challenge, where every day there is a different challenge you can complete. Boarders and House Parents from all houses have been participating since the beginning of the month, challenging themselves to improve every day.
We can proudly say Defne I. won Friday’s challenge as she managed to do 23.881 steps in a single day 🚶♀️🚶♀️. Congrats Defne!
Lots of love,
Terri, Sarah, Maria, Ioanna and Fana.
Dear all,

Lots of love,

Dear all,
This weekend, some girls had the chance to go on a day trip to Lyon, a city in the south-east of France. Lyon is well-known for being at the junction of the rivers Rhône and Saône, its Roman history, and its beautiful architecture.
The girls had an amazing time traveling to Lyon by train, exploring the city, and doing some shopping.
Lots of love,
Terri, Sarah, Maria, Ioanna and Fana.
Dear all,
Last Wednesday we had the pleasure to discover a new cuisine. Albanian gastronomy is a delicious blend of Mediterranean, Balkan, and Ottoman influences, resulting in a diverse and flavourful culinary experience.
Lots of love,
Terri, Sarah, Maria, Ioanna and Fana
It’s never too late for wishes!
During the Easter holidays, Sayuri (April 10th), Zoya (April 11th), Darina and Yvonne (April 16th) had their birthdays! And today, we celebrated Ingrid’s birthday!
Wishing you all the best!!
Our weekly meeting also allowed us to prepare something for the girls!
Adults had fun, too, preparing a fruit salad…
Love,
Terri, Sarah, Maria, Ioanna and Fana
We hope everyone enjoyed their holiday!
We are very happy to have the girls back at the house.
This has been a lovely welcome back weekend, the girls are happy to be back and so are we!
