Baking with LDG56 ✨

On Saturday, Lucy made her favourite baked cake – the classic banana bread, but with a twist! She managed to create a wonderfully gooey texture, that held its form perfectly 🍰🍌

With the addition of dark chocolate chips & the very secret ingredient of apple sauce, this banana bread was her best yet. So good – the evidence was gone within the hour. Thank you, Lucy, for treating us to this amazing bake 🙏

Here is the recipe if you’d like to try it – just add chocolate chips & apple sauce if you want to make it extra delicious!

We then decided to use the left over ingredients to make pancakes for everyone! Some enjoyed the traditional lemon and sugar topping, whilst others opted for dark chocolate and banana. This was a lovely treat for the girls and we had a great time making them together🥰

A Balanced Weekend of Study, Sport, and Friendship at Louis Degallier 60

This past weekend, the Louis Degallier 60 Boarders enjoyed a relaxing and entertaining break that balanced both productivity and leisure. With a calm atmosphere in the house, many students took the chance to catch up on their studies and organise their work in preparation for the weeks ahead. At the same time, those looking to stay active participated in invigorating climbing and running sessions, keeping both body and mind in shape while enjoying the fresh air and the satisfaction of physical activity.

Beyond the individual achievements, the weekend was also a wonderful opportunity for the boarders to connect and enjoy each other’s company. Whether it was during shared meals, casual conversations, or friendly games in the common areas, the sense of community was evident. These shared moments highlighted the supportive and friendly atmosphere of our Boarding House.

 

Another Weekend for The Books

This weekend was one for the books—a perfect balance of productivity and well-earned relaxation. With finals fast approaching, our boys were deep in study mode, but as the saying goes, a change is as good as a rest. Artem, our climbing virtuoso, scaled new heights—literally—while Louis, the running machine, was unstoppable on his routes. It’s always a joy to spend time with these guys and immerse ourselves in the things that bring them joy and energy.
