Hello all!

This week we had a really quiet week, most of the kids were in Ardeche enjoying a really good experience and here at Champ des Bois, we were Massamba and Wael into a normal academic week for the francophone section of the school.

On Wednesday, one new student arrived! Welcome IGOR!! He also could enjoy with Wael and Massamba the trip to Laussane on Thursday, we were visiting the Olympic Museum and visiting the city of Laussane. It was a really interesting visit to the Olympic museum, where we could see the olympic flame, the original jerseys, trainers and lots of other items from different athletes!

Also, we can play different games there, where we can compete to achieve different precision, quickness and balance. We did great but we need more practice to achieve the athletes records!

Here I attach few pictures of the trip.. Have a great weekend!!!

Today was International Day at school! International Day is a chance for all of the students and teachers and staff of the school to represent and share their culture and the food or drinks of their country. It was a very sunny day and everybody had a big smile on their face. I think that it was a total success and that everyone enjoyed it!

A huge well done to Gio who was representing the school today at the Swiss Group of International Schools Athletics meet in Bern. He finished fourth in the 100m and helped the 4x100m also finish in fourth place overall. Very impressive against a very talented field!

CdL came second overall in the whole competition – amazing! Well done to everybody who took part, you should be proud!

Mircea just won a chocolate bar by being closest in the “guess how many kilograms of chocolate spread were eaten last year” competition. Have a guess yourself then look at this article – quite unbelievable but I for one am proud to be part of such a successful collaboration!

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.

So there we have it, the boys have given you an idea of places they love, like or would like to visit. Here is an idea of where they are around the world. Interesting to see that North America, Africa and Asia have yet to be conquered! I am sure the boys will travel far and wide throughout their lives and have many great stories to tell about far off lands and different cultures!
