House Meeting at LDG56

During our house meeting before the Easter break, we met to discuss various topics, as usual. We started by enjoying some delicious Easter chocolates and continued by watching an important video from our boarding director, Mr. Usher, about the latest news.

We also discussed the upcoming charity event we will be holding in May, called the 24-hour running challenge, to raise funds for the cancer charity, as well as planned trips to Zermatt and Ticino, among others.

Finally, to close out Pillar 4 of our well-being program, Healthy Minds and Bodies, we will organize a basketball game between day students and boarders next Wednesday, where Villa LdG56 will be well represented.

 

A weekend full of new experiences ✨

This sunny weekend was filled with a variety of activities for our girls here in Louis Degallier! 🌞

First up, Lucy joined Collège du Léman’s very own karate club! Along with her friend Antonio, together they learnt the craft of this martial art. Well done Lucy for trying something new this weekend 👏

Meanwhile in the kitchen, Heloisa took on the challenge of making homemade sushi! With the help of fellow boarder, Nico, together they made 2 huge platters filled with freshly hand rolled sushi, including the classic ‘Maki’ 🍚

This type of sushi is made by wrapping rice and other ingredients in a sheet of seaweed called ‘Nori’, it’s then sliced into even segments. The hard part was making sure the consistency of the rice was perfect – a lot of concentration and skill is required to get it just right, and it seems like Heloisa & Nico followed the instructions to a tee. Well done! 🍱🍥

Heloisa also enjoyed the Stretching and Relaxing class, which took place outside this week! 🌻

Duda enjoyed the weekend socialising in the sunshine with friends. She couldn’t quite believe how lovely the weather could be in Switzerland having only experienced the cold winter so far. As an active person, Duda also went to the gym, and attended the body shaping class here at Collège du Léman 🙏

Well done for trying new things, girls – and here’s to more sunny days here at CDL! 🌞

Pillar 4: Healthy Bodies and Minds

During our well-being session—and following our previous discussions on nutrition and physical activity in the first two weeks—we explored the importance of mindfulness and its benefits.

The two key takeaway points for this week were: a) Understanding mindfulness and its benefits and b) Learning simple techniques to incorporate mindfulness into daily life.

We also watched a video created for the advocates of this pillar about the importance of mindfulness.

LDG60 Boarders Shine with a Soulful and Fun Performance of Careless Whisper
