Grade 5 Graduation!!

Dear all,

Today we celebrated an incredible milestone for Chika and Donny—graduating from Grade 5! 🎉 Well done, boys! This is a huge achievement, and the memories you’ve made in Primary will stay with you for life. Now, it’s time to look ahead to Grade 6 and the exciting adventures that await in Middle School. You’ve got this!

(But first – enjoy the summer holiday, you’ve earned it!)

Last Weekend & End of Year Party!

Dear all,

This weekend marked our final one in the house for this year, and we made the most of it!
On Saturday, a few of the Juniors headed into Geneva for a bit of exploration and some (much-needed?) last-minute shopping.

Then on Sunday, the entire boarding community came together for the End of Year Party. The boys had an amazing time — a perfect way to wrap up the year on a high note!

Happy Birthday Chika! 🎈🍰

Dear all,

Today, we celebrated Chika’s 12th birthday in the most delightful way!

The day began with a lively pool party during school, setting the tone for a fun-filled celebration. At dinner, we gathered for a cheerful round of birthday singing. Just when Chika thought the surprises were over, he was caught completely off guard by an impromptu cake session at home—much to his shock and delight; good on his Big Brother Mana with the luring in! The day concluded with a cosy movie, complete with all his favourite snacks. A truly memorable birthday from start to finish!

Primary Shakespeare Production 🎭

Dear all,

This morning our Grade 5 students – Chika and Donny – participated in a Shakespeare Showcase, their unique take on ‘Romeo & Juliet’, that was performed in small scattered scetions around the Concha Garden. It was a really original way to show off the play, and the kids did fantastic; across the board!

Well done to Chika, Donny, all the kids, and everyone who helped make the event happen – it was brilliant!

Leaving Our Mark🎨

Dear all,

As the year comes to a close, the boys marked our time together with a simple heartfelt art project—pressing their painted hands onto a shared canvas. (I think it is safe to say the ensuing chaos goes without saying!) It’s a colorful reminder of the bonds we’ve built since August. 🖌️

Please see the finished project below!

The Champions Return!

Dear all,

The CDB lads pushed themselves to the limit over the past few days, and even more so on the final stretch of their cycling adventure, and the pride on their faces said it all. This journey was more than just a ride—it was a lesson in grit, and discovering just what you’re truly capable of.

A massive shoutout to Mr. Mike for making this experience possible through his tireless efforts. Also, a big thanks to all those who accompanied them on this journey!

We are all massively proud of the boys and their incredible accomplishment!

A Slice of Summer

Dear all,

While our Middle Schoolers were off on their cycling adventure around Lac Léman, life on campus was anything but quiet. With the summer breeze in the air, how could it be?

On Saturday, the boys of CDB and the girls of Terray rolled up their sleeves for some baking fun, followed by a shopping trip into Versoix. The day wrapped up perfectly with a cosy Movie Night. Sunday brought a splash of excitement—literally—as everyone headed to the Concha Swimming Pool for a refreshing and laughter-filled afternoon.

To cap off the weekend, we created a beautiful montage of memories from the past year. Soon to be displayed in our hallway, it’s a heartfelt tribute to the moments we’ve shared and the journey we’ve taken together.
