Today, Ms Manuella from the Marketing Department paid our Concha boys an unexpected visit. All together with Mr Víctor, they organised a filming session for the school’s social media.

Today’s challenge was simply to translate some words from a list into their languages, so as to promote internationalism in our school and prove how enriching being surrounded by people from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds can be for the kids. They are really lucky!

Three outstanding students decided to join the video, Adrian (Switzerland), Fanyang (China) and Firdavs (Uzbekistan). Mr Víctor (Spain) joined as well representing the staff and adding a fourth language to the video.

If you want to see the final result, stay tuned to the school’s social media. Don’t miss out!

This evening for our International Dinner, we enjoyed a lovely meal from Spain!

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!

Tim has discovered the thrilling sport of climbing. He has joined this club for the past few weekends. Despite not having any prior experience he has now taken his climbing to a new level. He manages to climb some of the more tricky routes and is even starting to lead climb with a rope on the 15 metre wall!

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.

Today we had a spot of sunshine to round off a chilly and rainy week. The boys took full advantage of it!

Our boys enjoyed a very busy day, from boxing & climbing to going for a run and a day trip to Geneva and more!

This lovely Saturday morning, we went for a little walkabout to give Mana and Kimi some change of scenery to inspire their photography.

Tonight, Concha was filled with laughter and the delicious aroma of freshly baked lasagna. Our boys gathered around a long table, sharing stories and enjoying the hearty meal together. The warm, cheesy lasagna brought everyone closer, creating a sense of family and friendship. It was a simple yet memorable evening, reminding us all of the joy that comes from sharing food and moments with those around us.

While every morning the boys leave for school and enter the teacher zone, this afternoon we welcomed the students teachers into the boarder zone!

We were lucky enough to have both high school teachers and middle school teachers visit us in Concha for some cookies, crisps, chess and more.
