Dear all,

What a fantastic evening it’s been!
Tonight, the Boarding Community came together for the annual Boarding Talent Show — and what a show it was. The range of talent on display was truly impressive. A huge congratulations to everyone who performed, those who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make the night such a success, and of course, to our judges (who I’m sure had the tough job of picking the well-deserved winners)!!

Our boys decided to team up and perform their favourite songs, complete with choreographed routines. After weeks of practice and preparation, their hard work absolutely paid off — they were nothing short of amazing! We couldn’t be prouder of their energy, teamwork, and incredible performance.

Please enjoy the video of their performance below!

Dear all,

CDL hosted a spectacular Performing Arts Evening today, showcasing the incredible talents of our students, including our very own M. The event was a brilliant celebration of music, drama, and creativity, truly highlighting the dedication and artistry of these young performers.

A huge well done to M for an outstanding performance and to all the wonderfully talented students who took to the stage. A special thank you to Ms Picasso and the entire Performing Arts Team for their hard work in organising and hosting such a memorable evening!

Dear all,

The boys had a great time this weekend, taking a well-deserved break from school before jumping into their activities. The highlights included some of their favorites, like cooking and tennis, as well as a visit to Jumpspot in Lausanne, which they enjoyed as the winner’s prize for the November Fitness Challenge. They also went hiking, explored the shops in both Versoix and Geneva, and had a blast playing Loup Garou at the house. After a fun-filled weekend, they’re feeling refreshed and ready to take on the week ahead!

Dear all,

Today, Mana was chosen to participate in the Gymnastics Gala in the Grade 6 category. Despite being nervous, he gave it his all and did a fantastic job. If you ever need a lad to do some cartwheeling, we now know who to call! Well done Mana! 🤸‍♂️

Dear all,

What an action-packed day it’s been! We all attended the Grade 6 Concert in Eiger, proudly cheering on our very own Mana, Paul-David, and Ethan. The boys did a fantastic job, and it was truly a wonderful show. A huge thank you to all the music teachers for making it happen!

But the music didn’t stop there! Ms. Monica and Ms. Madina organised a fantastic Karaoke Night this evening (the inaugural event for the new Fun Night initiative that will be on offer every Tuesday during Soical Hour), and we all had an absolute blast. With a few rare exceptions, I’m not sure we hit a single correct note—but that certainly didn’t stop us from having fun!

Meanwhile, others in the house took to the pitch for the Staff vs. Terray/CDB friendly football match—an exciting game that made the junior houses proud!

Happy 13th Birthday Ethan, we hope you have a fantastic year. Congratulations on this milestone!

Dear all,

This weekend brought a fantastic mix of excitement, competition, and well-earned relaxation. One of the biggest highlights was the boys’ final Ski Day, where they took to the slopes with enthusiasm. Whether they were perfecting their turns, trying out new techniques, or simply soaking in the crisp mountain air, it was a wonderful way to wrap up a great season on the snow.

Beyond skiing, the boys have been fully engaged in their favorite activities, with Cooking and Tennis, proving as popular as ever. From friendly matches on the court to creative moments in the kitchen, it’s been great to see everyone making the most of their time.

Evenings have been a chance to wind down and enjoy some group time. We squeezed in a movie night, offering the perfect excuse to relax after an active day. And with the Six Nations in full swing, rugby fans (mainly just Mr. Ronan!) were glued to the action, enjoying some thrilling matches.

To cap off the weekend, when our skiers had returned; we all gathered around to celebrate Ethan’s birthday. Happy birthday Ethan!!

Dear all,

Tonight, we took a delicious trip to Colombia with a vibrant and flavorful feast! The menu featured Pollo Asado, perfectly grilled and seasoned to perfection, served alongside arepas with fresh cheese—a staple in Colombian cuisine. We also enjoyed crispy empanadas, packed with delicious fillings, and sweet milk jam pancakes, a delightful twist on a classic treat. To complete the meal, we had Colombian corn, adding a touch of tradition to the table.

¡Viva Colombia!
