Congratulations Gabriel!!
Welcome to Leman
Dear Parents/Guardians,
We would like to welcome each of you to the great start of the 2022-2023 Academic School Year in College du Leman !!
These last few days have been filled with a lot of joy and excitement from new and returning students. In a blink of an eye all students started to meet and socialize with each other with walks to the lake, visiting the Chocolate Factory Favarger, playing basket and football, exploring campus and within many other activities during the weekend. Have a look at some freshly baked pictures taken during these days:
A very warm welcome from the LEMAN FAMILY !!!

Samedi Du Partage!
Our Boarding students helped out in Samedi Du Partage Today.
Samedi Du Partage is a great initiative for the less fortunate who cannot get access to basic provisions. Our students explained to local shoppers the goal of this organisation. As you can see below our very own Leman 1 students, holding the iconic pink bag with Titeuf on it and loading all the goods into crates.
We are proud of our boys’ hard work and showing the true colours of our School by helping our community and others.
Wednesday Slice Of Life.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KARIM!!
Shot In The Dark.
After a rainy day, the boys took advantage of the calmer evening weather and went out onto the astroturf to play some football.
As it’s Sunday, they also had to play and communicate fairly quietly, which was definitely a challenging experience.
Running Man!
Baking You Crazy!
We had quite a large group of boys in cooking today – in fact Leman 1 dominated the second time slot. As a result, the house was chock full of chocolate and lemon/vanilla cupcakes.
On Wednesdays, We Have International Dinners!
Staff vs Student Night!
Summer Resonance
This evening, CDL students of various ages gathered together to put on a series of musical performances and showcase the skills they have been developing this year – including three of our boys Gabriel, Amirhossein and Ilian.
International Day Success!
Today we celebrated our diverse community here at CDL with International Day!
As a result of world events, this is the first time in a few years that we have been able to hold this event, and the return was a resounding success.
By the time I managed to get to the Chinese and Japanese food stalls, organized in part by some of our Leman 1 students, they had been completely sold out!
Fired Up And Ready To Grill!

Beautiful day for a Semi-final!

Wellbeing Pillar 5 – Making Safe and Responsible Choices
This week we will be focusing on the second takeaway point for this pillar.
Attachment figures.
The attachment theory focuses on relationships and bonds (particularly long-term) between people, including those between a parent and child and between romantic partners. The quality of our early attachments profoundly influences two things:
• Our personality
• Our relationships later in life
Depending on their attacment style, our students are either able to empathize with others, to share
feelings with other people, show trust, engage in long-term relationships, have high self-esteem, enjoy
intimate relationships, seek out for support etc or not.
Since our attachment styles are formed so early, we neither remember much about this stage of
development nor do we have control over it. Therefore, our attachment traits are typically subconscious and automatic. As a consequence, we might find ourselves repeating the same unhealthy patterns – in our relationships with ourselves and with others – over and over again. Therefore, we may make unsafe and irresponsible choices.
So, since Awareness is the beginning of change, this week we will ask our students to take an attachment questionnaire quiz to help them figure out their attachment style.
