Respect Week

This week we have celebrated RESPECT WEEK at school and the initiative that we have carried out in the Leman House has been a chain where everyone has written a word or a phrase related to respect. The whole boarding house is involved in this project, so we can read what respect is linked to in this house.

Entering the Christmas Season!

This weekend, like every other weekend, we had activities such as tennis, swimming, climbing, horse riding and the running and history clubs. As an excursion, on Sunday they went to the Grand Parc d’Andilly – Christmas Park. Here they were able to stroll around the stalls with Christmas sweets, drinks and Christmas food or activities inspired by Christmas. They had a lot of fun and the decorations for this special time of the year are already visible.

 

We keep going with the Wellbeing Programme!

Yesterday evening we started with the second Pillar of the Wellbeing Programme: Protecting against Bullying and Respecting Diversity. Adi, our Advocate of Leman, presented the challenge related to Race and Ethnicity. Our boys have to find the similarities they have with their roommates and record a video or an audio.

We will see what they find!

Back to the weekend activities after the October Break!

Even though it rained, and it was very windy this weekend, this did not stop the boys from getting back to their weekend activities. They have resumed activities such as tennis, cooking, climbing… They have also returned to chess, running and history clubs. This weekend they had handball as a different activity. But they have also had a day trip to the oldest chocolate factory in Switzerland, they have visited Maison Cailler, where they have been able to taste some of their chocolates, even the cocoa beans after having gone through the roasting process.

What a weekend have had our Leman boys. The bad weather does not stop these guys to keep on doing things.

Happy Bithday Jinde!!

Today we celebrate the 16th Birthday of Jinde, one of our boys. We gather as always with some friends in the kitchen and eat some cake, but this time was not chocolate as always, tonight we have RASPBERRY CAKE!!

What a delicious cake and awesome celebration!!

 

First trip of many: Disneyland Paris

This weekend was the first trip of the Boarding Community. The destination was the Disneyland Paris theme park! Our boys have the opportunity to meet the mythical characters of their favourite films, ride and have fun on the different attractions and see the incredible parades. They felt like children again in a magical world and lived the Disney experience 100%.

Our activities for the last weekend of September

This last weekend, our boys took part in many of the activities we have. Firstly, we started with the barbecue we had on Friday evening. The students were helping with the activities and selling moon cakes to celebrate the Chinese moon festival and raise money for charity. On Saturday and Sunday, they took part in the activities we usually have every weekend such as chess club, climbing, cooking, golf and tennis. This weekend they also went to Walibi amusement park where they had a great time and some of them also participated in the new history club.

This weekend’s wonderful activities

This weekend we had a wide variety of activities. Our students have been to the climbing wall, driving go-karts on an indoor circuit, they have also had tennis and cooking lessons in our facilities and many more activities. We are still taking advantage of the good weather to do some paddle boarding on the lake and running around the campus. For the first time we have also been able to play paddle tennis.
