Ivy teaches Andrea how to play the piano

It was Sofya’s birthday this week. She had a great day and received flowers and presents. Her room was looking very festive for the celebration.

This Sunday New Portena will take part in the Boarding Cheer Competition!
The idea of cheerleading is very important, because it brings a community closer together. We in CDL, really value team spirit, because that is what moves us forward-MOTIVATION and SUPPORT.
After all we are a big family, we have sad and happy moments, but we will always RISE higher and higher and reach our goals!!
Good luck to everyone this weekend!

Here are a few snaps of the girls enjoying time in Geneva.

The Girls were looking fabulous in the blooms, enjoying the last of the summer sun.

Some of the girls headed out for a spot of breakfast this morning. This was a special breakfast to celebrate no school on a Thursday. School is closed today due to there being a holiday for the canton of Geneva.

The ladies of New Portena enjoyed the first weekend in Geneva. Natalina snapped a great picture whilst sightseeing.

Heres to a few more sunny weekends in Geneva before winter kicks in.

The Stern Family kindly had a bunch of the girls over for a BBQ and Thai food. The girls all had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed all the food.

A big thank you to Mrs Stern for hosting and cooking! We loved the chicken satay too!

 Yansey turned 17 yesterday!!! 

The girls headed in to Geneva for a spot of shopping and a birthday lunch

Later that evening we celebrated in the house with a cake.

Welcome dinner for the boarders…
