Saturday and Sunday carried on with a lot of activities for the Concha boys.
On Saturday morning, we dipped our toes in Lake Geneva for some fun, then on the afternoon we went to Geneva.
Climbing that day was also a lot of fun and in the evening, the guys had a fantastic time on the football pitch.
We also have this one from Javi, very stylish, very commanding. Being in the center of the conversation in Vienna!
Imagine the excitement when school is out for an extended break! With no classes on Thursday and Friday, the kids were overjoyed to embark on thrilling adventures. Let’s dive into their incredible journey!
With four free days ahead, the kids eagerly ventured into the Bio Parc. The sight of rescued birds, playful lemurs, and friendly farm animals brought smiles to their faces. The joy and wonder of witnessing these incredible creatures up close made their hearts soar with happiness. It was a perfect start to their break!
On Friday evening, the kids headed to the cinema for a mind-blowing action movie. The electrifying stunts and intense storyline had them on the edge of their seats, grinning from ear to ear.
After Go Karting, we came back to celebrate the birthdays of Eugenio and Firdavs. Cake, snacks, and high spirits made this a Sunday to remember!
This weekend, Concha was treated to a day of Go Karting in the mountains of Mont Blanc. Although it rained, they all had a fantastic time racing cars.
Last night the boys had a lovely meal based around Lebanese culinary culture.
The 38th edition of this peculiar race takes place in Versoix and in other cities of the region. They are vehicles without engines, made in an artisan way and they have to make a downhill course in the shortest possible time propelled by gravity. No doubt they have left us some funny memories to see the number of funny designs we have seen.
This Sunday we have the Football for Everyone event on campus where boarders can participate in fun football matches while raising funds for charity.
Cooking is ever so popular and Chef Masafumi was making some delightful breakfast in the house!
Chase the ball!
Intercept!
Catch!
Show ’em some moves!
These arms will catch any goal attempts!
Rest but observe the other team you will play against
You might be taller but I’m quicker!
Ready to play!
Lead the charge!
When you are so good that the girls are chasing you.
So, what’s the next move?
Bacon stripes! Bacon stripes! Bacon stripes! Yay!
Chef Masafumi in action.
Yesterday night the boys and all boarders were able to taste and experience some of the incredible food that Chinese cuisine has on offer! Yumm!
This past weekend, the middle school students were lucky enough to visit the Mer de Glace (Sea of Ice) in Chamonix. There was little snow due to the weather being warm, however we were able to admire the views and walk down to the Ice Caves below, where we were greeted to a turquoise blue cave we could wander our way through. On our way down, there were plaques indicating where the glacier was during the year on the plaque. This served as a reminder as to how the glacier has depleted over time.
Welcome back to the Concha blog!
Almost everyone is back and we are back at our game at full. The final stretch, the final quarter has begun! We are near the finish line and life in the house is very smooth.
The weather allows us to spend a lot of time outside on campus and we sure get tired. Therefore we are always very hungry when we go to dinner! The dining hall staff never disappoints, and we walk away full and satisfied! Tonight was the first international dinner after the holidays and we got to taste Albanian cuisine.
