Hello, Franconis Rejuvenators and Collège du Léman Explorers! 🚀🌈

We’re thrilled to announce that after a (perhaps too short) February Break, our doors are wide open, and the Franconis family is ready to embark on the second half of the semester! 🎉📚

.

As February unfolds and the break approaches, we want to take a moment to extend our warmest wishes to all our readers.

We want you to know that we will be eagerly awaiting the return of our students after the break. The energy and enthusiasm they bring to our community contribute immensely to the vibrant spirit of our house, and we can’t wait to resume our shared journey of learning and growth.

Greetings, Global Thinkers of Franconis! 🏡🌟

Today, our Franconis boys delved into the profound concept of Global Citizenship, unraveling its layers and contemplating its significance. After thoughtful discussions and reflections, they distilled their collective insights into a succinct and powerful definition:

Global Citizenship is the capacity to perceive the world as your home and your home as the world. The world is your home because you have the responsibility to respect every inhabitant, regardless of cultural background, gender, language, nationality, or religion. The world is your home because all individuals are integral to the same dwelling, contributing to a collective living project, to the same home. The world is your home because there is a duty to nurture and preserve it, much like caring for one’s own residence. This involves not merely preventing deterioration but actively fostering improvement. Your home is your world, emphasizing the importance of embracing diverse global experiences. This includes engaging with different cultures, residing in foreign lands, and extending the definition of family and friends to encompass individuals from around the globe.

In this profound definition, Franconis encapsulates the essence of a Global Citizen—someone who recognizes the interconnectedness of our world, embraces diversity, and shoulders the responsibility of fostering a harmonious and thriving global community.

Here’s to the continual exploration of global perspectives and the shared journey towards responsible Global Citizenship at Collège du Léman!

Hello, Franconis Enthusiasts and Collège du Léman Explorers! 🏡🌈

Another weekend in the books, and the Franconis lads seized every moment, balancing rest and excitement in the vibrant tapestry of Collège du Léman’s offerings. Let’s dive into the highlights of this action-packed weekend!

The spotlight was on Franconis this weekend as our boys, fueled by adrenaline and competitive spirit, took to the karting tracks for our House Activity. Speeding through the twists and turns, they showcased not only driving prowess but also the art of calculated overtakings. Concha Annex students joined the fun, but it was clear that Franconis held the winning edge with their driving finesse! 🏎️🌪️

Meanwhile, our beloved captain, Navidreza, demonstrated his unwavering commitment by not missing his usual climbing session. Scaling the heights, he focused on enhancing strength, gripping skills, and strategic prowess to conquer the challenging boulders. A true display of determination and passion! 🧗‍♂️⛰️

As Franconis continues to write its weekend tales, here’s to the perfect blend of thrilling activities and personal pursuits that make every weekend at Collège du Léman an adventure to remember!

Hello, Franconis Celebrators and Birthday Enthusiasts! 🏡🌟

While Víctor kicked off the birthday festivities with family on Saturday, the Franconis family didn’t miss a beat and orchestrated a heartwarming surprise celebration yesterday, Sunday! 🎁✨

Víctor, our radiant friend and fellow Franconis family member, your birthday joy echoed through the walls of our house as we gathered to celebrate YOU! Though the day might have been belated, the warmth and excitement were right on time. 🎊🥳

Here’s to the joy of belated celebrations and the cherished moments that make Franconis more than a house—it’s a family where birthdays are celebrated with an abundance of love and laughter!

This weekend a few of our students went to see their families and the ones staying took part on different activities.

Jeff played tennis with some of his colleagues of boarding.

Navid took part on his first climbing competition.

He got second position and this tournament gave him more motivation to advance on this discipline.

Martin learn a new recipe this weekend. Must have been delicious because he ate it before arriving home!

At 20:00 the ball started rolling and the boarding tournament began. Our students joined forces with students from Leman and New Portena to face the Olympus students in the opening match. Our students performed well and at the end of the match they won 6-1. Bravo Franconis!
