Tanzania: A trip of a Lifetime 🌏❤️

Over the October break, several of our boarders opted for the exciting school trip to Tanzania where they embarked on the most incredible adventure! Valentina was one of these students and experienced some truly wonderful moments, some of which are captured below ❤️🌏

This trip had the perfect mix of volunteer work, camping, site seeing and animal spotting 🗺️🏕️

During the first week, the students worked hard by assisting with an important building project that, once finished, will greatly benefit the local community. As you can see from the photos, Valentina’s contribution to this project was certainly impactful 🙌

She was able to learn new skills, and more importantly, gain an appreciation for work under challenging conditions 👏

Well done, Valentina – you did us proud 💕

Working alongside the community, the students were able to learn about the daily lives, cultures, traditions and challenges experienced by the locals. They connected with the young children through dancing, singing and playing games – an unforgettable experience for all the parties involved! ❤️

Of course, no trip to Africa would be complete without a Safari! The students were lucky enough to witness some of the world’s most beautiful animals, including Zebras, giraffes, elephants, buffalo and even lions! 🦒🦓🦁🐂

And finally, during the last week, the group travelled to Zanzibar to enjoy some well-earned rest & relaxation on the stunning beaches! 🛥️⚓🏝️

As you can see, this trip was not just a holiday, it was an opportunity to give back, learn, and grow. The students returned back to Switzerland with a deeper appreciation for different cultures, and of course unforgettable memories that will last a lifetime 💕🌍

Monthly Boarding Assembly, October.

This week, during our Monthly Boarding Assembly, we successfully launched the first pillar of our Wellbeing Program: Online Safety. As part of our ongoing commitment to the holistic well-being of our community, the Online Safety pillar aims to empower students with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate the digital landscape responsibly and safely. We believe that equipping students with these skills will help foster a secure and supportive environment both online and offline.

 

 

Baking Club 🎂💕✨🍰

This weekend, our girls got their chef hats on and spent most of their free time preparing some delicious home baked goods. I am pleased to say that we have some very talented bakers here in Louis Degallier 🍰🍪

Heloisa & Valentina baked some amazing chocolate chip cookies. Crunchy on the outside, and soft on the inside, they really nailed the texture! 🍪❤

Next up, Lucy, Jasmine & Ava baked some wonderful chocolate brownies, gooey in the middle, with cracked sea salt on top to break up the sweetness, delicious! 🍫💕

Then we have Sally who made a triple layered chocolate mousse. This was a very complex recipe with several techniques, using dark, milk & white chocolate. Well done, Sally! 👏✨

& Finally, Ella baked some gorgeous brownies, served with the biggest blueberries we have ever seen! These brownies were dairy free and delicious 🍫🎂

Thank you girls for creating a lovely weekend, filled with smiles, singing & sweet treats 💕🥰
