Today Ayaka, Lorena, Alessia, and Costanza  enjoyed the good weather to practice paddle.

Sometimes our LY7 girls study alone but other times they prefer to stay together for their Study Hall.

Remember that learning with a group of peers could be a powerful tool! Study groups are a place to work on challenging concepts and learn from each other!

     Jeûne Genevois (meaning Genevan fast) is a public holiday in the canton of Geneva, which occurs on the Thursday following the first Sunday of September. It dates back to the 16th century.
    Tarte aux pruneaux (plum pie)  is often served as dessert in Geneva homes on Jeûne genevois. Any knowledge as to how this tradition began seems to have been lost, although it may have come about as a means to allow women and housekeepers a way to spend the day in prayer, having cooked plum pies the day before (area plums being in season).

It was nice to see old and new Students in the Welcome dinner. Our LY7 girls enjoyed of a great supper with big smiles 🙂
