Shintaro, Loris and Yanis

We are very lucky to have an active and health aware group of students, however it is always important to remind and educate our boys about the importance of having an active lifestyle.

In this session, we had a 30 minute meeting about why it is importance for the boys to take advantage of the facilities we have at Collège du Léman and the local area as a whole. We discussed the physical, psychological and social benefits of exercise. The boys had lots of opinions, insight and knowledge which was very pleasing to see.

After our meeting, we then left all our devices at home and went to play several sports on the campus, including Basketball, Badminton and Football. It was a really fun afternoon.

Last week, the whole Boarding Community travelled to alpine resort of Leysin to enjoy the beautiful scenary and to participate in mountain activities. These included Biking, Rock Climbing, Outdoor Living and Cooking, Orienteering and many more.

This morning, Jaime and I sat with the Concha students and discussed the first pillar of our Wellbeing Programme. We talked about the importance of rest, sleep and meditation, and the boys were extremely interested in this topic.

We also discussed nutrition and hydration, and the importance of having a balanced heathy diet, for their growth, health and the benefits this will give them at school and later life:

Today, we visited the HQ of FIBA, the governing body of Basketball. There, we visited the museum and even played basketball outside.
