After visiting the Cailler chocolate factory we took a walk around the old castle of Gruyère

We visited the old town of Gruyère and had a good IceCream made out of good Swiss Milk

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!

Mason was so grateful that his big brother Kevin was willing to help him with his IPC project. Mason has a school project due for Friday and it’s is about Ancient Egypt! The task is to create a diorama of an Ancient Egyptian household and to talk about who lives there and what their jobs were.

Well done for showing such brotherhood boys!

The boys’ reading levels are really improving rapidly. A lot of the children are now moving on to chapter books and we all have 15 minutes of reading time after school and even ore if you’ve been sucked in by the story-line. Well done you little bookworms!

Next time you see a bed of flowers, stop and smell them…unless you have hay-fever. Enjoy the small things in life, nature is a free gift so don’t just pass it by.

What a lovely day to jump on the bike and have an enjoyable ride around the town and by the lake. We are so lucky to have such a beautiful lakeside to enjoy and it’s so close.
