Witnessing Yufei making a wish on her birthday has been an incredibly touching experience. The sweet glow of candlelight on her face, the anticipation in her expression when closing her eyes and smiling really impressed us.
Dear Yufei, we really hope all your wishes will come true.
Happy birthday again! ย ็ๆฅๅฟซไน
This first weekend of December was packed with excitement for the New Portena girls. Ingrid showcased her skills in her first fencing competition, proudly returning with a silver medal.
Meanwhile, Ana Cristina, Melissa, and Paulina glided through a fun-filled day at the local ice skating rink, creating memories on the ice.
Aliki, Lulu, Bice, Sayuri, He, Yufei, Hanna, and Valentina embraced the festive spirit, spending a delightful Sunday at the Montreux Christmas market.
Gergana braved the cold and participated in her first Escalade race!
Cheers to a weekend filled with achievements, laughter, and festive joy at New Portena! ๐ โ๏ธ๐ #NewPortenaJourney
Manuela, our very own House Captain, ย celebrated her 16th birthday on the 28th of November . The next day, she and her friends had a fantastic night out at a local restaurant. Happy birthday Manu and to more joyful moments ahead! ๐๐ #SweetSixteen #NewPortenaCelebration
We invite everyone to have a look on how much fun New Portena students had by making Christmas decorations last weekend ๐๐ ๐ผ๐คฉ
Baking is a nice different way to spend the weekend, but if this moment is shared with friends, music, having fun and as preparation for a House Competition, it can be really amazing ๐
Since the beginning of the week Aliki has taken charge of the Bake-Off House Competition, making a list of all the ingredients needed and last weekend, with the help of Valentina and Daliya, has prepared a great colorful cake.
Everyone is very happy and proud of the result… we just have to wait to know who is the winner ๐ค๐ผ๐งก
Valentina and some girls from the other houses have been selected to participate to the Senior Girls volleyball tournament which have taken place in Warsaw last weekend and they won the first place.
Congratulations for this victory. Vale, well done! We are very proud of you!๐๐
The “Samedi du Partage” is a specific day dedicated to promoting solidarity and sharing with people in need. The aim is to encourage people in doing positive actions by sharing food, time, or skills to make a difference in the lives of other people.
We are really proud of Manuela who, in the early morning of today and with a big smile on her face, went to Aldi with 3 other students to take part in this very generous initiative to donate some food to people who really need it.
Last Tuesday a very niceย performance took place in Eiger Auditorium. It exuded an enthusiasm that electrified the atmosphere, captivating the audience with an unwavering passion that radiated through every movement and expression. ๐คฉ
Indeed our sweet Gergana showed her incredible acting skills and the audience was utterly astonished when witnessing such an extraordinary acting talent. It was like uncovering a hidden treasure, leaving everyone in awe of the sheer brilliance displayed on stage. โจโด๏ธ๐
After this magnific show Gergana has been asked to take part in the other upcoming events of the year, so we are really looking forward to see her on stage again! ๐
Yesterday our dear Camila had a birthday full of wonderful moments ๐๐ค starting from her parents surprise of the balloons with a touching birthday message, a dinner with her dearest friends, ending then with some time spent with her New Portena family to eat all together the birthday cake ๐ฐ๐
Happy birthday again, Cami โค๏ธ Feliz cumpleaรฑos! ๐
This Sunday, the 19th of November, marked a heartwarming event at CDLโthe Gift Box Wrapping activity. After gathering donations from our boarders a few weeks ago for the Gift Box Appeal, it was time to transform those contributions into beautifully wrapped gifts.
Leading the charge on this compassionate project were Bice, Sayuri, and Hanna, alongside the dedicated efforts of Coco, Ingrid, Mei Mei, Paulina and Melissa among our New Portena Girls. Together, they brought warmth and joy to the season, showcasing the spirit of giving and camaraderie.
This initiative is another step in our #NewPortenaJourney, a journey that embraces not only diversity and unity but also extends a helping hand to those in need. Stay tuned for more updates on our collective efforts to make a positive impact in the world. ๐โจ
