A Heartfelt Valentine’s Day Celebration at the Boarding House:

This past Friday night, Louis Yung 7 was filled with an energy that was as warm as the oven baking our sweet treats—because we were celebrating Valentine’s day, not with romantic love, but with the kind of friendship and sisterhood that makes your heart feel full and your smile wide. If you’re looking for a unique way to celebrate love, it’s hard to beat the fun and meaningful experience of spending the evening with your closest friends, creating memories together. Here’s a peek into how we made this San Valentín a night to remember.

The evening began with the girls taking charge in the kitchen, preparing a delicious homemade dinner for everyone.

By the end of the night, our hearts were full.  Everyone enjoyed the evening, and it was a night to remember!

Lots of Love,

Let’s Taco ‘Bout Dinner 💃🌵🥑🌶 🌮

Dinner tonight was simple—tacos and good conversation. We sat around the table, passing toppings, assembling our plates, and just talking. About our day, about random things, about nothing in particular. No rush, no distractions—just food and people. A good way to end the day.

Lots of Love,

The Way We Treat Ourselves Affects Our Relationships

As we wrapped up our third Wellbeing Pillar, we took a deep dive into something so simple yet so important: the way we treat ourselves shapes the way we treat others.

For our monthly assembly, Marina helped present this message,and we shared a special interview-style video where Marusya sat down with the Louis Yung 7 girls and Ms. Aida. Their honest and thoughtful answers made the topic feel real and personal.

This final week tied everything together—after exploring self-awareness and self-care, we reflected on how all of it connects to the way we interact with the people in our lives. Watching the students nod along, smile, and even share their own thoughts afterward was a reminder that these conversations matter.

As we move forward, I hope this pillar stays with the students—not just as something we talked about in assembly, but as a mindset they carry into their friendships, family relationships, and even the way they see themselves.

Because at the end of the day, the relationship we have with ourselves is the foundation for every other relationship we build. 💙

Lots of Love,

Self care & Boundaries 🧘‍♀️☁️🎧🫧

This week, we dived into the importance of self-care and setting healthy boundaries as key foundations for positive relationships. Emma and Valentina’s Empty Cup demonstration brought our theme to life, showing that if we constantly give without replenishing ourselves, we eventually burn out.

To help students reflect on their own self-care habits, we shared practical tips on managing stress, prioritizing rest, and making time for activities that bring joy. We also explored the role of boundaries in maintaining healthy relationships through an interactive Kahoot, sparking great discussions on when to say no, how to communicate personal limits, and why respecting others’ boundaries is just as important.

Our key takeaway: You can’t pour from an empty cup—taking care of yourself helps you build better relationships. By making self-care a priority and setting clear boundaries, we create space for healthier, more fulfilling connections with ourselves and others.

Let’s keep filling our cups! 💙

Lots of Love,

Aida & Yewande

A weekend full of good energy

Our weekends are always full of energy and excitement. Whether it’s school events, fun activities, or spontaneous adventures, there’s never a dull moment.

This weekend, CDL hosted a Basketball Tournament, and Vale didn’t want to miss the opportunity to help organize it and ensure it was a fun event. She was in charge of the music, and she has been very proactive in helping. Well done, Vale!

The girls also had the opportunity to join the first ski day, and Marce and Etoile had a super fun day in the snow, race included. Despite an early wake-up to get to the mountains, it was really worth it, and they came back with a smile.

Emma, Sofiia, Sonja, and Marina didn’t miss the opportunity to join our activities on campus, Tennis, Stretching and Bodyshapping. While others, like Marusya and Anna, have been more focused on studying. It’s been a great weekend, and we are ready for a new week full of energy.

Lots of love,

Aida & Yewande
