Today we went to Vallée d’Abondance on the other side of lake Geneva to do some rafting. The weather was really nice, and it was very hot. It took quite a while to get there, but it was absolutely worth it, because we had loads of fun! The water was freezing, but it wasn’t a problem. We went down the river really quickly, and we were having some breaks where we could jump and swim in the river. Sometimes the rapids were wild, which was really exciting. I am pretty sure that everyone had a great time and we are all delighted that we went.

Hello, I am Aslan

I am from Kyrgyzstan, Bishkek. I will be talking about Sydney, Australia.

I chose Sydney, because its a beautiful city with many different attractions. For example: You can go to the coast, royal gardens, Chinese garden of friendship, Sydney harbour and the opera house. I have never been there, but I would like to go one day.

Every week in Champs des Bois our tutor gives this cup to the best room. Its mainly about how clean the room is, but it also depends whether you were on time for the activities and if you are doing well in school. I have won it this week, and I’m looking forward to enjoying my chocolate prize!

The days are getting shorter and shorter, and nights are getting longer. Yesterday evening at 17:30 when we were making our way to study hall, we saw something really beautiful shining up in the sky. It turned up to be the planet Venus. Its really bright, so you could easily notice it in the sky. It’s isolated and seems to be shining alone in the sky as the first star to come out. Everyone who lives near to Switzerland will be able to see it, and they will enjoy looking at it for sure – look to the South West in the very early evening. It was great today because the skies were so clear.

On Sunday we went to France to do some paintball. We all enjoyed being outside in the nice weather. My team won all 3 of our games, it was very exciting! Here are some photographs of us looking like cosmonauts in the clothes they gave us to wear!

For the whole school week, the weather was really nice as you can see from the pictures below and we’ve been enjoying it. Also we were pretty excited about going rafting this Sunday. However the weather got worse and its raining from yesterday until today without stopping, so we have decided to go to the cinema instead to watch an amazing movie – Ironman 3!

This is my new room-mate Sashka. I like him very much, because he is a good and funny person. He is very positive and he is always shining like a star. I’m really happy that he moved into my room. I think he will enjoy living in Champs de Bois because its a very positive house (just like him) with good guys living here. I am really happy that he moved into my room  !! 🙂 !!
