Tonight Olympus faced Leman in a game of basketball. Leman came out winners. It was a great game and both sides played really well.

Wednesday night is meeting night. Tonight we discussed different upcoming topics for the week ahead. We also spoke about the fitness challenge that will be happening for the month of May.

Here is the challenges that are set for the students who would like to take part. It is a different challenge for each day. It is a fun way to stay active and is great for the wellbeing of our students.

As part of the Wellbeing Pillar 5; Making safe and responsible choices, tonight we watched a short video that discussed the changes that happens when going through the process of being an adolescence.

Iyowuna received boarder of the week for this week.

A food truck came to visit campus today to spoil us with some delicious burritos to the whole of boarding. It is fair to say they went down a treat!!

Tony enjoyed a Saturday morning ride where he done 10km through the woods in Versoix

The sunset is on Olympus for another day.

A windy Versoix is ready to welcome our students after the spring break.

Spring vibes are in the air. Iyowuna and Hanwen enjoyed a nice walk in the afternoon of Saturday.

Today we spoke about online safety with our G11 students. We touched base on what is legal and what’s illegal. We were all surprised.

Afterwards, staff and students followed a 35′ session of yoga and stretching. Bravo guys!

Tonight we brought Pillar 4 to a close, with a stay safe workshop aimed at the informing the Boys of the dangers of online texting, and the risks of sharing pictures of ourselves online.

There was shared input from all the Houses to create the Video, with pupils giving their perspectives on the dangers of the online world. Mrs Jody from the counselling department created the video, and afterwards we looked at a quiz, opening our eyes to many of the laws attached to online content,  I think we all agreed, we were unaware some of these laws even existed. 

The Boys were given a reality check on some of the stats from teenagers, and how the expectations many “believe” others have to send pictures of themselves online.

These meetings with the Grade 12 are precious, as they will soon be leaving and moving onto their new lives at university. These Well-being sessions work not only as a tool for the boys here at CDL, but also help prepare and give them methods and means to cope and be prepared for the independence that awaits them in a few short months……..
