Laughter filled the air as they shared stories, each cheesy bite bringing them closer together. The homemade lasagna, layered with love and laughter, became a symbol of their bond. Amidst exams and assignments, this simple meal was a comforting reminder of friendship and the joy of shared moments. In that warm living room they found a slice of happiness.
Taco Thursday!
Swiss Dinner In The House
In the heart of Switzerland, our boarders gather for a culinary delight: beef sausage with Rösti. This quintessential Swiss dish combines savory sausages with crispy, golden Rösti – grated and fried potatoes. Amidst the aroma of sizzling sausages and the satisfying crunch of Rösti, camaraderie flourishes. It’s not just a meal; it’s a cultural experience. As they indulge in this flavorful tradition, students bond over the rich heritage and exquisite taste of Swiss cuisine, creating memories that will linger long after the last bite. And to add to the ambiance, Daniel played the piano while Nikita strummed the guitar.
The Bulgarian tradition of the Martenitsa
Today Kristian shared with us a tradition form his home country Bulgaria; Martenitsa.
In Bulgaria, the arrival of spring is celebrated with Martenitsa, a charming tradition steeped in folklore. These red and white adornments symbolize health and prosperity, worn from March 1st until the sighting of the first stork or blossoming tree. Martenitsa embodies renewal and hope, as Bulgarians exchange them with loved ones to usher in the season of rebirth. This delightful custom fosters community spirit and connects Bulgarians to their rich cultural heritage.
Kristian brought bracelets to everyone so he could share this tradition with all his housemates.
Enjoy The February Break!
Adam & Bryan’s Geography Lego Project
Adam and Bryan had an assignment in their Geography class: Build the city of the future, based on renewable energy. Both boys chose a different approach. Adam chose to use Mr. Stéphan’s Lego Class Bricks and build a project from scratch. While Bryan went to Geneva and bought a gigantic Lego City set of a modern and ecological city.
Both of them had fun building it, and we wish them to get the best grade.
