CDL Day – Grand Prix 2023
Happy CDL Day!!
To celebrate the core values of our school and support important causes such as Mental Health Awareness, we had a variety of events taking place on campus today!
One of those being, the annual Grand Prix running race around the school campus. The atmosphere was buzzing and we are very proud of everyone who took part, including 14 of our Léman boys!!! Well done everyone!!!
Cloudy yet busy weekend
Despite the rainy weekend, this did not stop our boys from joining activities and being active. Enjoy the images captured from these moments :
Talent Show 2023
This evening we had the most anticipated event of the year in the Boarding community. The Boarding Talent Show. The Léman boys did us proud with a song and dance!!
Weekend Activities for the Léman boys!
Another weekend of fun activities for our students this weekend including; skiing, paintballing, tennis, badminton, horse riding, running, cooking and many more. We were also happy that our students were given the possibility of visiting the Frida Kahlo exhibition in Geneva this weekend.
Paintballing Activity for some of our Léman boys!!
Online safety part 2. All the dangers we face everyday when we are online.
The second part of our Wellbeing topic on Online safety was discussed today. Everybody got engaged in a Kahoot on online safety where we got hints and tips on how to be safe online. Spam messages, phishing, stolen passwords, scams and so many other features are strategies to retrieve personal information from us which will surely be used illegally.
Our safety therefore depends a lot on our reflexes and our knowledge in selecting in what we click on the web. Being aware is a first step… being smart and suspicious is a second one. Better safe than sorry, online as well.
Well done to Ablai and Emad who did a great job in leading this session and being reliable and eloquent advocates of this Pillar.
Remarkable Rainy Rome Recreation
This weekend was greeted by rain and a cloudy sky, but that did not stop our boys from getting out and doing great activities.
Have a look at some of these moments:
Wellbeing Pillar 4 Online safety
In today’s House Assembly we have started discussing the first take away point for the 4th Pillar of our Wellbeing Programme.
Online Life Vs Real Life
Our House Advocate was Emad who took over the job of running the session and launching the debate with his housemates.
How many hours per day do you spend on your phone?
Which social media do you have?
Thinking of your followers – do you know them all?
On a normal day, do you speak more with friends in person, or via your phone?
Do you use your phone in the last 30 minutes before sleeping?
From what age do you think a young person should be allowed on Instagram / TikTok / Snapchat?
Do you think people only show a ‘good side’ of life on social media?
Have you ever experienced something negative online?
Are we conscious of how much time we spend on our phones – do we spend an equal amount of time living offline?
Answers differ from person to person and it was great to see how all the group engaged into the planned reflective activity.
Thank you Emad for the preparation work you have done and for taking on the challenge of presenting in front of everyone.
Finally, we had some time to discuss, plan and rehearse our Talent Show. We had Timur taking the lead with a couple of suggestions and we are not going to disclose anything but expect an “extravaganza”
Weekend activities
The Léman boys back to enjoying all the fun weekend activities we have to offer….
The weekend the activities included; chess, tennis, badminton, table tennis, woodcrafting, climbing, running, music and more!!
Boarding trip to Barcelona!!
The latest Boarding trip took place this weekend – to the beautiful city of Barcelona. With a tour around the Barcelona Football Club stadium, a visit to the Parc Güell and a chance to enjoy delicious Spanish cuisine – the students learnt lots about Catalan culture and had lots of fun.
The next trip will take place between 10th and 12th March to the Italian Capital City of Rome……..
Ski Club and Ski Competition
Many of our Boarding students made the journey to the amazing ski resort in La Tzoumaz this morning. Where some students went to participate in the third instalment of this year’s ski club, many also went to take part in the Boarding Houses Ski Competition. Lots of fun was had by all, and there are lots of tired boys in Léman this evening.
Happy Birthday Ilian!!
