Another fantastic evening having fun in Olympus!

Today we combined our forces with Leman 2 and we participated in the classic Sport Tournament. With the sport tournament we open the traditional House Competition. The Concha boys will try their best to reach the victory this year !

Lovely day for shopping and enjoying Geneva 🙂

This nice and sunny saturday morning we went for a bike ride through the Forest. Fantastic time a lot of fun with the kids!

Before the house dinner our boys did a 30 min workout in the garden.  We can guarantee that they are in good shape 😉

This evening, Jaime and I rewarded the boys with their favourite homemade pasta with tomato sauce. To ensure we followed the food service rules, we served the boys their meals, bread, salad and cheese individually. We had a lovely evening!

This week has seen the launch of the first Pillar of our well-being programme, Nurturing Healthy Minds and Bodies. This first Pillar will accompany our students through these first weeks of the school year, and it will offer them the opportunity to work on a range of many different projects and activities until the October Break. During the next weeks we will cover crucial topics such as sleep, nutrition, exercise, and emotional regulation which will be the main focus of this Pillar. 

In Concha Boarding House, we strongly believe in the importance of sport and activities and the extensive benefits they have on both our physical and emotional well-being. We think it’s very important that where we work hard, rest and relaxation are also vital. This can be provided by sports also, but other constructive ways to look after ourselves emotionally can be reading, listening to music, meditating, making things or yoga.

Throughout this school year, students will be encouraged to complete an individual project and a community project for each pillar of well-being. Our community project will involve the whole Boarding House and we have entered teams in this year’s Football and Basketball Boarding tournaments. It will be fantastic to enjoy these brilliant competitions together as a group, as well as enjoying the benefits this will have on both our bodies and minds.
