Tuesday night was pure magic! We hit the stage for the annual boarding talent show, and let me tell you—these girls gave it everything they had. After weeks of rehearsals, endless inside jokes, and a few moments of “wait, what’s the next move again?”—they absolutely nailed it.

And the best part? We walked away with second place! But honestly, the real win was seeing their hard work, teamwork, and sheer joy come to life on stage. I couldn’t be prouder of them—not just for the performance, but for the way they supported each other through it all.

This weekend was a sweet success—literally! Etoile, Sofiia, and Sofja joined me in the kitchen to whip up a batch of delicious brookies (brownie-cookie magic!), which the whole house enjoyed with a glass of milk.

Anna, Sofiia, and Valentina showed off their skills on the tennis court, while Marina powered through a bodyshaping session.

Everyone stayed active, balanced, and well-fed—what more could we ask for? Looking forward to another fun-filled week ahead! 🚀

Lots of Love,

What a weekend! We kicked things off by celebrating International Women’s Day with a homemade cake, bringing everyone together for a sweet and meaningful moment. Etoile, Emma, and Marce also had a special dinner with a former student and were surprised with roses—such a lovely way to mark the occasion!

A weekend filled with fun, fitness, and fantastic achievements—well done, everyone! 💪🏆🎉

Lots of Love,

Today is a special day as we celebrate Sofiia’s 18th birthday—a milestone that marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter in life! Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of watching her navigate challenges, celebrate successes, and develop into the remarkable young lady she is today.

Happy 18th birthday, Sofiia! Here’s to a lifetime of happiness, adventure, and success. We’re so proud of you and can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll accomplish. 🎉💕

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.

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. 💙

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,

We couldn’t be more proud of our students who achieved honors in the first semester! Their dedication and hard work have truly paid off, and it’s a joy to see them thrive. This accomplishment is a reflection of their passion for learning and commitment to growth. We’re excited to see what the next semester holds for them. A big congratulations to all—keep shining bright!

This month, we’re focusing on our third Wellbeing Pillar: helping students understand that healthy relationships begin within. Before they can build strong, positive connections with others, they first need to develop a strong, positive relationship with themselves.

Through self-awareness, students learn to understand their emotions, values, and boundaries. Through self-acceptance, they learn to embrace who they are—flaws and all. These two qualities are the foundation for meaningful, authentic relationships with others.

To bring this pillar to life, we invite you to watch this short intro video created by Etoile and Marcela. It’s a wonderful way to understand how we’re guiding your child toward self-awareness and self-acceptance.

Today’s session ended with a fun and meaningful activity: the Self-Acceptance Ball Toss. The girls shared things they appreciate about themselves, reinforcing the importance of self-love and confidence in a lighthearted, engaging way.

The takeaway? Positive relationships start with self-awareness and self-acceptance. By nurturing these qualities, students can build connections that are rooted in respect, understanding, and authenticity.

Lots of Love,

Aida & Yewande
