From Classroom to Culture: Students’ Trip to Cambodia and Vietnam
For the October break the girls embarked on an unforgettable journey to Cambodia and Vietnam. Packed with excitement and curiosity, these young travelers set out on a cultural and educational expedition that would leave a lasting impact on their lives.
The students visited local communities, engaged in meaningful volunteer work, and learned about the challenges faced by these resilient people.
As they return to our school with hearts full of memories and a broader perspective on the world, they carry with them the understanding that travel is not merely about visiting places but connecting with people and cultures. This experience will undoubtedly shape their future in the most profound ways.
We are proud of the girls who embarked on this journey, and we look forward to hearing more about their adventures.
Warm regards,

Weekendful memories!
We are thrilled to share the exciting weekend our girls had! They enjoyed a packed schedule filled with various activities that kept them active and engaged.
On Saturday, the girls got their groove on with some fantastic hip-hop dance lessons, and they showed off their tennis skills on the court.
They were able to expend their energy before enjoying their free time, whether in Versoix or Geneva.
But the fun doesn’t stop there! Today, our girls have more exciting activities waiting for them. They had the opportunity to choose to participate in the chess club, swing those golf clubs, or indulge in a rejuvenating stretching and relaxation class.
Happy Birthday Alex!
Today is a special day as we celebrate not only Alex’s birthday but also the wonderful presence she brings to our boarding community.

We look forward to seeing you at the brownie sale outside panthers during lunch (12:15 – 13:40) !
