Welcome to Concha! 2016-2017

Welcome to the Concha House blog! Here you can find Weekly Updates on what’s happening in the lives of the Concha Boys!

The first week has been a rollercoaster ride with half of the students in Concha being new to CDL and finding their bearings and becoming at ease with boarding life and others returning for a new academic year. The transition into school and boarding has not been without its challenges but everyone has settled in well and has had a great week. We are fortunate enough to live in multicultural community and we are very pleased to say that everyone has made new friends from yonder a field and has certainly learnt a thing or two about different country’s and the people from those country’s- a truly enriching experience! This week we have had loads of admin tasks to deal with in order to be ready for the new School year as well as the Welcome Dinner which was great! The first weekend saw a jam packed weekend with loads of activities and trips. Friday evening the boys took some well deserved time off and managed to relax and get some social sports in on the Concha field. Saturday the boys ventured in Geneva for some well deserved free time and some exploring of the city was to be done as many of the boys had never been before. Many of the boys took to the water to try out some wake-boarding or Banana Boating on the Lake on Saturday morning and thoroughly enjoyed it- even the ones who couldn’t stand up or stay on!  Others got to enjoy a spot of Golf, swimming and a guided tour of Geneva!

Welcome Laith and Weekend Fun

It has been a special week in Concha…We had the opportunity to welcome Laith on a trial stay with us in Concha for a while and it looks like he had a great time and we cannot wait to see him again in Concha.

We also had a few Activities that the boys participated in which was great fun.
