Dear all,
To celebrate the final week before the April Break, we had the joy of enjoying Dinner at Home this evening. The sun was shining, the kebabs were a hit, and the atmosphere was full of smiles and good vibes.

Weekend Sun ☀️
Dear all,
The boys have had a lovely weekend here. The April Break is approaching incredibly fast so we made the most of the past few day as we could, and with the sun out and warm weather everywhere – it would have been rude not to! From weekend activities, Laser Tag, afternoon trips into Geneva, celebrating birthdays, and still (somehow!) plenty of energy afterwards for some playing games outside in the fresh evening air! It’s been a treat!

Boarding Talent Show!!
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!

Hopping-Mad for the Weekend!
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!

Path to Adventure
Dear all,
Today, we had the pleasure of hiking in Monts Jura, the closest mountains to our school, just a 15-minute drive away.
Ethan and Xingyu both really enjoyed the hike, though they admitted they were a bit tired at the end — which makes sense, since they gained 250 meters of elevation over 6.4 km.
Along the way, we enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere of the Jura forests. We also walked by the Le Jourmans river for a few kilometers and stopped to enjoy the view of a beautiful waterfall. If the weather is good & I’m sure we’ll go on many more hikes like this.

Grade 6 Gymnastics Gala 🤸♂️
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! 🤸♂️

Rising Stars: Grade 6 Concert, Karaoke Night & Football Rivalry 🎵🎤⚽
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!
