Topping Off the Week: How Pizza Makes Fridays Perfect

Friday nights at Concha were nothing short of Michelin-star-worthy. The boys rolled up their sleeves and rolled out the dough, ready to create their pizza masterpieces.

Concha and CDL Takes on the Coasters 🎢

The Concha boys had a great time at Europa Park, diving into the excitement of the roller coasters. They raced from ride to ride, enjoying the adrenaline rush as they tackled each thrill. With plenty of laughter and friendly competition, the day was all about making memories together and enjoying the rides that pushed their limits.

Right before going in!

International Dinner and a Taste of Home for Some 🇨🇳

Today, we got to enjoy some Chinese flavors in our school dining hall. The menu featured a range of dishes, from fried rice to dumplings, and of course, stir-fried noodles. It was a great way to mix up our usual meals and try something different.

Using chopsticks was a bit of a challenge for some of us. There was a bit of fumbling as we tried to pick up noodles and navigate our way through the meal. Luckily, there were plenty of helping hands around to give us a quick lesson and help us get the hang of it.

For many students, this was a first-time experience with Chinese food, and it was a good opportunity to try something new. It’s interesting how food can give us a glimpse into another culture, sparking conversations and curiosity.

Sunday Fun and Return to School 🏫

On Sunday, our Concha boys joined in for a morning of fun before heading back to school.  They tackled Parcour, mastering agility, and teamwork through exciting obstacle courses.  In the Survival session, they learned key wilderness skills like shelter-building.  Creativity shone during Land Art, where they used nature as their canvas, and they wrapped up with Nature Journaling, capturing the beauty of their surroundings.

Saturday Mountain Weekend Shenanigans

Today was a day packed with excitement and adventure as Concha Boarding House, along with the whole CDL community, embraced the great outdoors in Leysin. With perfect weather and stunning mountain views, everyone had the chance to break free from the daily routine and dive into an array of thrilling outdoor activities.

 

Middle School Monday Start ⏰

Our high school students embarked on their Discovery Week today, while our middle schoolers resumed classes. After a day of learning and study hall, our students had the chance to unwind with a game of soccer!

Activities Galore on a Sunny Saturday in Switzerland 🇨🇭

The boys got some well-deserved rest, sleeping in before the activities began. The Conchsters headed out to wakeboard on the glassy waters of Lake Léman, while others took on the climbing wall and badminton court.

It was a day to remember, and I invite you all to take a glimpse at our unforgettable experience!

Concha Believe It? Football, Slides, and New Faces!

Our Concha reunion was a blast! Along with reconnecting, we welcomed new kids with a football match that had everyone cheering. The excitement didn’t stop there—our trip to the water park, filled with slides and splashes, was the perfect way to cool off and bond

With new friendships and unforgettable memories, this reunion was one for the books. Here’s to more fun and adventures at Villa Concha! 🏈💦
