Hello, Franconis Explorers and Snow Enthusiasts! 🌟🏡
This past weekend marked the second edition of our exhilarating Mountain Weekend, and true to Franconis spirit, our boys reveled in the snowy wonders of Crans-Montana in the canton of Valais, nestled at the foot of Mont Bonvin.
In the heart of the Swiss Alps, our Franconis lads embraced the national sports of Switzerland with zest—skiing and snowboarding. Against the breathtaking backdrop of snow-capped peaks, they honed their balance and aerodynamic skills, creating a symphony of joy and thrill on the slopes. 🎿🏂

Hello, Collège du Léman Community and Wellbeing Enthusiasts! 🏡🌈
In the spirit of nurturing positive connections and fostering self-awareness, our Franconis lads have embarked on the third part of our Wellbeing Program. This chapter is a testament to the significance we place on building friendships and cultivating relationships grounded in positivity.
To capture the essence of their friendships, our Franconis lads turned to their friends, asking them to define their bonds in just three words. The responses were a beautiful mosaic of sentiments, reflecting the unique qualities and dynamics that make each friendship special. 🗣️💬
From “Serious, Laughter, Kind” to “Messy, Loyal, Wise,” these words paint a vivid picture of the deep connections flourishing within Franconis. It’s a celebration of diversity, understanding, and the shared joy of companionship.
As we continue this wellbeing journey, let’s cherish the threads that weave the fabric of our friendships, creating a supportive and uplifting community at Collège du Léman.
