Well-being Pillar 5, Making Safe and Responsible Choices.Week 2

During this week’s house meeting, we focused on empathy—what it means, the challenges it presents, and why it matters. The Advocates Team guided us through a video that explores the concept of empathy and highlights key insights. Click HERE  to watch the video.

The main objective is to help students develop a deeper understanding of how empathy is formed and why it plays a crucial role in making safe and responsible choices.

May Boarding Assembly

Tonight, we held our penultimate Boarding Assembly, led by Mr. Usher, our Boarding Director.
As always, a variety of important topics were covered to keep our students informed and prepared.

We were especially proud to celebrate one of our legendary students, Taissia, who marked the end of her remarkable six-year journey at Collège du Léman with an inspiring presentation about her home country, Russia.

Thank you, Taissia, for allowing us to witness your growth into a confident, poised young woman, now ready to embark on your next adventure at university. We hope you carry with you the cherished memories of your time here.

With heartfelt wishes,

Your Swiss boarding family

Well-being Pillar 5, Making Safe and Responsible Choices – Week 1

During tonight’s house assembly, and as part of our Wellbeing Program, we launched Pillar 5, which focuses on “Making Safe and Responsible Decisions.” This topic is especially important as students grow and prepare for the transition to university, where they will begin to assume the responsibilities of adult life. Teenagers face a multitude of influences, both online and offline, that can present significant temptations. It is essential that they develop strong, healthy morals and principles to effectively navigate these challenges.

In the coming weeks, we will explore two key takeaways from Pillar 5:

1-The difficult art of seeing the world through the eyes of others.

2-Respect as the key to resolving conflicts and building meaningful connections.

We also screened a video created by the lead tutor for this pillar, Mr. Manu, which included his personal reflections on the work completed, along with insights and feedback from his colleagues.
