During Saturday, the boys cooked some really tasty pieces of meat, played a friendly Kahoot! competition and took part in activities and had a fun time in Geneva.

First of all, Happy New Year to all of our readers and followers!

The boys are back at CDL, ready to take on new challenges and pursue opportunities and have a lot of fun doing it.
Our first week has already started and it has been going well. Stay tuned for updates on our second term!

The first term of the 2022/2023 school year came to a close. House Concha Blanca would like to wish you a happy new year and an awesome Winter holiday. Please enjoy a selection of pictures of the past almost half-year.

Here is to an awesome 2023 and second school term! See you all back in January! 🥳

The boys were on trips on Saturday and Sunday.

On Saturday we went to Interlaken, a beautiful valley between the mountains and a lake. After a tour at the old town and the small market, the boys decided to play some football in the park and we watched paragliders descending from the mountains.

On Sunday we went to Montreux and visited the popular Christmas Market. The boys had a lot of fun and checked out the numerous entertaining and fun offerings at the stalls.

Duck your wings up!

Is this a new secret handshake or we are admiring a flower?

Eyes and ears on the guide!

An adventure awaits!

“Let me save this for later!”

Who has antlers now?

If it is flat and has grass, it will be good for some football.

Let’s try something new!

Interlaken, beautiful as ever

On Wednesday, after the boarding assembly the boys went to have dinner. The Lebanese dinner was amazing, probably one of the best dinners the boys had here so far, according to their own opinions.

On Wednesday evening we attended the October boarding assembly, where the boys and other boarders have heard about how life on campus is going in a month into the 2022/23 school year. During the assembly students had an opportunity to go on stage and express their own and their houses’ opinions and advice in connection to the Wellbeing program at College Du Léman.

Aryan, Bisher and Masafumi represented our house on stage and their presentation was wonderful! It takes courage to speak in front of hundreds of people and the boys took on this challenge bravely. We are proud of you guys!

Concha’s football team captain, Joseph played in a local football tournament, where he showed why he has his spot amongst the very best players in boarding. After a busy day of playing and scoring goals, he arrived back later during the afternoon. We are proud of you Joseph!

Panthers lead the way!

Earlier this week the middle school teachers visited our boarding house and the boys made sure they had a great time in Concha. They showed them around the house and talked about their favorite subjects and pastimes. They even had a quick table tennis tournament!

The boys have enjoyed a wonderful weekend in the mountains. They tried themselves out at different activities.
It was a tiring weekend but they enjoyed themselves a lot!
