Yesterday we celebrated the birthday of Lulu who came back from the trip in Rome.

We are so happy that you had such a special birthday. With ❤️

While Ashley, Vlady, Adela and Lily were making some very tasty raspberry soufflé crêpes in Eiger cafeteria and Ella and Sofiia were engaging in their weekly habit of decontracting stress accumulated in the stretching and relaxation activity, last weekend Ana Cristina and Gergana they were very enthusiastic to join pilates.

Getting out of one’s own daily routine is very important for mental and physical health and Hanna has found a great relaxation habit: going out with a sweet dog called Dixie four/five times per week.

Indeed spending time with animals not only is incredibly therapeutic but it also helps to reduce stress and facilitate social interaction.

Since the beginning of the school, we have done our best for creating an uplifting and motivational atmosphere inside the House and among the girls by sending them self-reflection good morning and good night messages in different languages as well as with “take a smile” and “take a hug” post-it which can brighten students’ days.

Positive and inspirational House decorations in English and French are the news of 2024!

If these initiatives piqued your curiosity, you will find all the details below 🙂

While all the other girls of New Portena were enjoying the second ski weekend in Leysin, Paulina, Melissa, Ana Cristina and Maria Fernanda spent two sunny ski days in Crans Montana.

This video captures all the fun and excitement the girls had during this trip 🤩🤗

This past weekend, the Grade 9s and 10s of New Portena embarked on an exhilarating journey to Leysin, where sunny skies set the stage for a winter wonderland adventure. They tried skiing, snowboarding, and even ice skating. To chill out, some of the girls relaxed in the thermal baths. It was a weekend full of snowy adventures and big smiles! 😎❄️ #SkiFun #NewPortenaSnowTrip

祝天天开心、万事如意！- We wish you to be always happy and all the best!

Igloo building and excursion to Glacier 3000 are just a few of the original and unique experiences that girls from New Portena made during the last ski weekend in Leysin: if you are curious, do not hesitate to watch this video 🙂
