Thursdays are a special time for us to come together as a household and share a meal in our home. With music playing, laughter filling the air, and a delicious Mexican feast before us, tonight was a truly memorable moment at Louis Degallier 60!
Tristan and Louis tucking in!
A taste of Mexico 🇲🇽
Loading up the Taco 🌮
No waste in LDG60!
Every month, during our traditional house dinner, we take a culinary journey to different countries. Tonight, it’s Mexico’s turn, featuring delicious tacos! 🌮🎉
Tonight, the monthly boarding assembly took place. As always, various topics were discussed, but perhaps the most engaging was learning about the myth behind the Chinese Zodiac.
This past weekend at Collège du Léman was filled with adventure and excitement for the Louis Degallier 60 boarders. The students had the chance to challenge themselves with thrilling activities such as Climbing, Skiing, Handball or Fitness, which not only allowed them to push their limits but also to bond with friends in a fun and supportive environment. Whether scaling walls or skiing down the slopes, the boarders embraced every moment with enthusiasm, making memories they’ll cherish. The weekend was a perfect blend of physical challenges and shared experiences, reinforcing the sense of community among the students.
To cap off the exciting weekend, a delightful Sunday brunch was organised, where everyone gathered to enjoy delicious food and relax in great company. The atmosphere was full of joy, laughter, and celebration. This weekend was also a moment to recognise the hard work and dedication of the new admissions into the college, marking a significant milestone in their academic journeys. The event was a true celebration of growth, achievement, and camaraderie, leaving all the boarders with a sense of pride and anticipation for the rest of the school year.
Today was Duda’s second day of skiing at La Tzoumaz. It was an incredible day—sunny, full of good energy, and perfect for enjoying the Swiss Alps and their breathtaking panoramas
Doing simple stretching exercises just two or three times a week can significantly increase flexibility, improve balance, and relieve pain caused by muscle and joint stiffness. Bravo, Helo and Maria Carolina !
Following our well-being program Pillar 3, tonight, during our weekly house assembly we discussed Self-care and Boundaries.
Setting boundaries is an important part of establishing one’s identity and is crucial for mental health and well-being. Setting healthy boundaries can have many benefits, including helping people make decisions based on what is best for them, not just the people around them. This autonomy is an important part of self-care. Healthy boundaries are a crucial component of self-care.
Boundaries can be described as how emotionally close you let people get to you. They are also where you draw the line within a relationship. They say how much you are willing to give or take before requiring that things change or deciding to call it quits. Boundaries are one of the measures of relationship health.
We also watched this video, where some students explained the importance of self-care and how “they can fill up their cups”
This weekend, Heloisa, Duda & Maria Carolina learnt how to make traditional french crepes, with a complex salted caramel sauce and classic caramelised apples! 🍎
It’s safe to say they enjoyed the process, and I’m not sure how much salted caramel sauce made it back to the boarding house 😅
On Saturday, Lucy was able to enjoy the ski slopes in Leysin. She was above the clouds, soaking up the sunshine and the beautiful mountainous air ⛰️🎿
Maria Carolina & Duda embarked on their first shopping experience in Geneva! They then found a delicious Brazilian restaurant where they enjoyed some food with some fellow boarders 🥗🥟
& finally, Jasmine was busy in the kitchen perfecting her cooking skills. Not only did she bake two batches of healthy brownies made with blended oats, but she also seasoned and cooked the perfect steak. Well done! 🥩
As always, we had a great weekend here in Louis Degallier 🥰
