International Dinners at Collège du Léman: Iranian Evening – Happy Nowruz & Welcome Spring!
Tonight, we celebrated Iranian culture with a special international dinner at Collège du Léman. The event honored Nowruz, the Persian New Year, which symbolizes renewal and the arrival of spring. Students enjoyed an exquisitely prepared Iranian feast, immersed themselves in traditional music, and learned about the rich customs associated with this festive occasion.
Adding to the special atmosphere, we were delighted to welcome back a former student, Amirhossein, who kindly helped serve traditional dishes from his country.
What a magnificent evening to welcome spring!

Well-being Pillar 4, Healthy Bodies and Minds
As part of our Pastoral Program, we launched Pillar 4 of our Wellbeing Program, titled “Healthy Bodies and Minds,” during our weekly house meeting. This pillar focuses on Nutrition, emphasizing two key takeaways: First: Understanding calories and portion sizes. and Second: Making healthy food choices and staying hydrated.
During the meeting, we also watched a video in which students shared their thoughts on the importance of eating healthily, understanding daily calorie intake and portion sizes, and choosing nutritious meals. The video highlighted the significance of staying hydrated as well. Our House Rep, Jasmine, led this important discussion since she is one of the most passionate and health-conscious members of our house.
