Low temperatures but high spirits up in the Swiss Alps. What a remarkable weekend we’ve had together.
Champs des Bois and the rest of the Boarding Houses traveled to a lovely ski resort high in the mountains. We all wrapped up warm and spent our time snowboarding or skiing, relaxing in the thermal baths, playing Bingo or board-games or even hiking to the summit at 3984m – with a little helping hand from a gondola and a chairlift.
The second part of our weekend was filled with Chess club, Escape rooms, Nature Walk, Climbing, the best Brunch ever and a birthday party all happening here in CDL. Our younger boarders picking up some new skills and having lots of fun.
Another great weekend enjoying ourselves in CDL campus and a wide range of activities on offer for our boarders to choose from.
New activities to explore this 2nd term, our student made this clay mouse which he proudly put on display in his bedroom. We played various board games after school the boarders love to compete against their House Parents.
This evening during our 1st welcome-back Assembly, these 2 students made us proud House Parents. They stood in front of an audience and read beautifully a lovely poem that we wrote about diversity. I am delighted that our senior House Parent Mr Antonio gave our younger boarder an opportunity to showcase their work.
Diversity
If I could change the world to a rainbow
What if everyone was forced to see
The world exactly like me
A world where all think as one
So, we do not judge anyone!
What if one person chose to know
In unity we stand is the way to go
What if one person desire to grow
And invites humanity to this show
What if one person’s heart sought love
To purify and unite us all
What if that person rose above
Throw away hatred, spread only love
If someday I sit on top of this world
Bring on changes with a single word
RAINBOW
A rainbow of diversity
A rainbow of beauty
A rainbow of bright happy colours
A rainbow of happiness
A rainbow of forgiveness
A rainbow sent from above with a blazing brilliant sight
A life multicoloured is a life unified
A good old classic game of Monopoly is just the perfect way to spend the afternoon when it’s too wet to go outside and play! Plus this super cool Dragon Ball Z version is great, thanks for sharing and letting us play Nicholas!
We are back in the Boarding House and have a new student joining us for this term. Welcome Cinar, he’s a fan of footy and also a keen mathlete!
