February Boarding Assembly

On the first Wednesday of every month, we get the lovely opportunity to come together as a community and share a variety of things with each other.

On our way to the Assembly (To see Omar slipping down a moment later – read to the end)

On time and looking fine.

We had cultural presentations from Enrique and Parga from Léman.

A club promotion from Otabek, Abay and Yosuke about the PR Club.

 

A presentation from Amanda about her passion and talent for Art.

And a lovely presentation from Martin about Football For All, a charity that he is passionate about.

Don’t worry, he’s ok! Thank you for reading this far!

 

 

Blue Skies For Our Skiers And Snowboarders.

The boys enjoyed another consecutive weekend on the slopes of Fiesch.

Karim, Jules and Omar shared their snaps from the mountain.

Omar was very happy with his progression on his second weekend ever on the board.

 

In the meantime Nadim and Jonathan stayed in campus preparing important academic tasks and trying new recipes at home.

 

We also invite you to have a look at the 2nd Edition of “Inside Boarding” the Newsletter made by our students. Don’t miss out. Here’s the link.

Building Positive Friendships

In our House Meeting this Wednesday, we discussed our Third Wellbeing Pillar: Building Positive Friendships.

Being an international community, we also discussed the importance of developing friendships with people from other natioanlities and cultures.

We started off the session by answering the following questions:

  • How does the boarding house support and encourage international friendships?
  • What advice would you give future students coming into an international school environment?
  • Can you think of some examples of famous international friendships?
  • Self-Reflection – Do you embrace the international community, or do you prefer the convenience of building friendships within your own culture and language?

Additionally, each of us wrote down three adjectives that we felt describe a good friend.

The Boys, here to eat cookies and answer questions.

“I think he means SOCIALISING”

The adjectives our house felt were the most important characteristics of a good friend.
