With today being the last day of school, it was quite an emotional one for the boys. The word “Goodbye” has a sense of finality to it.
So we are lucky that CDL is a bilingual school, and we also use “Au Revoir” – until we see each other again – perhaps a more optimistic sentiment.
The world can be quite a small place sometimes, and the boys are looking forward to seeing their friends again in the near future. For now, on to the next adventure!
Today we spent a very energetic afternoon at The Jump Spot, a trampoline park in Lausanne.
The boys had a blast, got the feeling, jumped up and touched the ceiling!
Ivor has recently been learning how to play backgammon and has picked up some of the basic strategies quite quickly. The combination of skill, luck and taking risks makes for a very unpredictable and fun game!
We’ve had a lot of rain recently, but thanks to that our morning walks to school have become all the more greener!
Christopher went Biking with Mr. George, Mr. Ronan and a bunch of Seniors this Saturday.
He managed to keep up with the bigger boys quite well and bicycled over 11km!
Leon and Ivor spent Saturday morning learning how to make sushi.
They learnt about the ingredients that go into the most popular sushi rolls, and the perils of wasabi!
Sunday afternoon was the opposite of a lazy Sunday.
We had the opportunity to play laser tag in the beautiful Concha garden, and what a blast it was!
It was an intense battle, but ultimately we achieved our Main Mission: TO HAVE FUN!
So hear me all and listen good,
Your effort will be worth the cold.
If you are brave and in the wood
I bestow your title and the gold!
Saturday evening CDB participated in the Boarding Treasure Hunt! And what a thrill it was!
Clues in the form of poems engaged our minds and took us on a tour of our campus.
Questions about something in each location engaged our senses as we studied our surroundings carefully.
We did quite well! While we were tied for how many questions we got correct, our enthusiasm paid off as we had the faster time!
