It was great to see you Vlad, please come see us again soon

Arshia had some friends round this weekend from Leman 2, they enjoyed playing pool and spending time together in the Louis Degallier boarding house #The Best Boarding House

It’s always a pleasure to spend some time in the green field with the students and even more if it’s with the Brazilian talents like Thiago and Luis.

This Monday we started the week with a couple of talks about how sugar affects our bodies. The students participated in the discussion and brought their knowledge into it.

To finalize the session the students were asked to suggest different kinds of snacks and drinks they want in the house but before they have to find out the nutritional info of the items they wanted to ask.

Some of the best moments with the students are those when we (house parents) have the chance to witness our students supporting each other. Same way Arshia organized a meal and a birthday cake for Aitic and his friends last Friday; last evening Casper took the initiative to help Arshia with Bio-chemistry. And this is only one example of many, just this time I was able to capture it on camera. 😉

The students of Louis Dégallier led by Arshia gave a wonderful surprise to Aitenir last evening at Geneva. Joyeux Anniversaire Aitic!

Last Weekend our students took part in different activities.

Some of them involved delicious rewards.

Sviat took part on the tennis lessons.

So did Thiago on Saturday morning.

Vitor joined as well the training.

The Ukranian doubles was hard to beat.

In another activity Casper and his colleagues prepared a variety of pastry dishes.

Last Monday the students of Louis Dégallier went to the forest for a walk as an initiative to keep the students connected with the beautiful surroundings of Versoix and engage them into daily exercise.

Zen did some brewing up on Wednesday night before assembly and made the house Tea, and it was pretty good. We had green tea, Thyme tea, camomile tea…. everything was available in the Little Zen’s tea shop.

Last Sunday we celebrated the Sports Day at CDL Boarding

We teamed up with Megard and Concha Anexe

Tug of war was definitely the hardest challenge.

Basketball shot outs weren’t easy neither.

Concentration was key for all the activities.

… as well as speed! It was a warm Sunday full of exercise and competition.
