Last night some of our girls joined to play the game “Loup-Garous”. Wolves trying not to be discovered against the innocents trying to survive and unmask the wolves with uncertainty.

A night that we will surely repeat!

Friday night was a movie night in Portena house! The girls decided to watch the disney movie “Vaiana” and they had a lovely time all together.

In the first week of school the girls have not only been busy with lessons but they have also had a lot of activities where they have been able to bond with their new classmates or just have fun with their friends from other years, who have missed each other a lot during the summer.

This Thursday we also had the welcoming assembly for both new and old boarding students and the new staff and after that the international Swiss dinner took place, where to find delicious Swiss food! 🧀🍫

We are very proud to announce to you that 4 of the 12 prefects selected at CDL are from Portena house. They have been chosen for their personal and academic excellence so we feel very happy about them living in our community.

Here is a picture of Coco, Sayuri, Bice and Mei Mei.

We had the opportunity to go to Aquapark yesterday afternoon. The girls were very excited about it and they had lots of fun going down the water slides. It was a very sunny day so it has been the perfect journey before starting classes and focusing on their studies. 🙂

We are happy to introduce to you the Portena Team:

Cristina Ferri, Perrine Manoury, Maral Daqiqui, Tania Chaveinte, Iola Thakur and Ana Vicente

Welcome to the family!

Here we are at the end of the year… the last day of departures for the summer holidays has arrived. ☀️

Despite our sadness for not seeing the girls for some time, we are glad they will have this period to relax and spend time with their loved ones. 😍
We wish everyone a great summer, full of enjoyable moments to recharge batteries for the return to school!

We are looking forward to seeing you in August! 😊

Today everyone enjoyed a day of fun in Concha Garden. The event included different activities such as inflatable games, a foam party, and swimming in the pool. All the students had also the opportunity to enjoy ice cream and popcorn accompanied by refreshing drinks.

It was a memorable day filled with smiling students wet or full of foam who were happy to spend one of the last days of this academic year by having fun with their friends and House Parents.

Dear Ana Karina and Ana Cristina,

We have been lucky enough to witness the last year of this adventure and all we can say is that we are very proud of you both and we are going to miss you. You are amazing individuals, driven and passionate. You are ready for your new challenges, in which we are sure you will find new successes and new opportunities to learn and grow.

Thank you for leaving your mark on New Portena. Good luck on the next leg of your journey, we know that you will do amazing. ❤️

Yesterday, the Sports Award Ceremony was held to celebrate outstanding athletes, and we are incredibly proud that one of the honorees was Chihana. It was a fantastic moment to recognize Chihana’s enthusiasm, dedication, and motivation in representing her team.
