We have three new girls in Mies this term!
Adeline arrived to Mies last week from China and is already settling in well to Mies.
Mara and Catinca are joining us in Mies tonight. They are both from Romania and are coming to us from New Portena. We hope they enjoy the change and being in an external Villa!
We are all looking forward to getting to know them, and will update you all of what we get up to this new term!
Tonight we celebrated Christmas in Mies.
We did a Secret Santa, cooked and enjoyed spending time together.
On Saturday night we had the annual Christmas Dance at the Kempinski Hotel in Geneva.
It was a lovely night with good food, great company and entertainment.
As you can see below, our Mies girls looked stunning!
Thank you, Diego, for organising such a fun evening!
Today we decorated the Boarding House ready for Christmas!! Let’s hope Santa Claus knows we have all been good girls this year!
Tonight we attended the Boarding Awards Ceremony for the First Marking Period.
Javiera won the Boarding Life Award for her attitude, participation and enthusiasm in all aspects of life in Villa Mies and CDL.
Marine won the Activities Award for her constant enthusiasm and participation in extracurricular and weekend activities.
Well done girls!!!
Our Mies girls have been busy recently helping others. They took part in a campaign for Christmas Gift Boxes that will be sent to orphanages and hospitals in Eastern Europe.
Boxes had to include school supplies, toiletries, sweets and chocolate, and some toys.
Bojana, Lana, Marine, Ming and Ying all got involved and did a fantastic job in finding some lovely things for the underprivileged children. Thanks, girlies!!
Last week we had the Parent Teacher Meetings where our girls found out how they are doing in their classes.
All our girls received many good comments along with some targets and goals for the next Marking Period.
We’re looking forward to their continuing hard work as we move forward in their final school year!
All our girls in Mies are leaving for the October holidays to have a well deserved rest! Have a great time and see you next week!!
Poor Marcos is staying for the holidays as Official Caretaker of Villa Mies. We hope he is up to the job!
Today we had a House Competition and had to cook a three course meal for three Very Important People.
We made tomato bruschetta, chicken in a mushroom sauce served with a baked potato and steamed vegetables, and a fondant au chocolat.
We had a lot of fun cooking together and hope the Judges enjoyed our creations!
