An enchanting Winter Ball where laughter echoed, dance floors sparkled, and students had an absolute blast! ✨❄️ A night filled with good fun, lots of laughs, and unforgettable moments.🌟
The boys before leaving the House ready for a night of fun!
Tonight we celebrated ¨Escalade¨ a traditional Geneva festival that celebrates the victory of the Geneva Republic against the Savoy’s Army in 1602. Each year we buy a chocolate marmite full of candies to celebrate this tradition where the youngest and oldest in the House smash the marmite to get the sweets inside.
Hamza and Didier are about to smash the Marmite.
Tonight we had our Boarding Awards ceremony for Semester 1. There were Boarding Life, Activities and Academics awards.
The Activities Award goes to the students who show excellence by making the most of the endless opportunities in terms of evening and weekend activities, and who push and challenge themselves to new heights and achievements. Rodrigo received this reward.
The students who get The Boarding Life award represent the identity of Boarding through their commitment towards others, respect for the rules, sense of community and positive energy. Hamza received this reward.
This week for our wellbeing program the focus shifted to the theme of disability. It was an opportunity for the students to reflect on the concept of disability itself and to consider the potential barriers a housemate with a disability might encounter in the different houses. 
The students had the opportunity to share their responses to the question; What would you improve about the boarding house for a housemate with a disability?
In the enchanting winter ambience, talent took centre stage at our inaugural winter concert. Students showcased their remarkable skills, creating a magical evening filled with melodies and applause. It was a testament to the vibrant community spirit that defines our boarding experience.
Diego from the House embraced the opportunity and sang amazingly!!
Today we had the Baking competition where Diego prepared a Tarta de Santiago and Dionisio put the finishing touches to it.
Samedi du Partage is a great event that happens throughout Geneva, supporting people in need. Volunteers engage with customers at the supermarket, encouraging them to donate food and other hygiene products. Each year we have students who volunteer and get involved in this great initiative. Thank you to all the students involved today.
This evening we enjoyed having dinner in the House.
This week for our Wellbeing Pilar our boys were given the opportunity to ask any anonymous questions regarding sexual orientation or gender identity. The topic of sexual orientation and gender identity can be a delicate one… Doubts, fear, embarrassment and prejudice can surely hinder one’s willingness to openly talk about his views and needs.
