Christmas Market

            Thank you to Olga, Tanya, Irina, and Sofia for helping at the Christmas Market today. Despite the cold weather they were smiling and eager to sell our baked goods for a Charity organization. Also, thank you to Lucélia for making her delicious Pumpkin jam and Paracuca (sweet peanuts).

Great work Ladies!


 

CDL Talks: Inspiring Future Leaders

Yesterday some of the girls had the opportunity to attend the CDL Talks where they had the pleasure of listening to Reginald Bien-Aimé who focused on The Future of Work. He is a successful project manager specializing in marketing and management.

Yasmina attended the talk and came back to the House with a smile on her face, as many of the girls did. She told us, “I loved it! It made me realized the opportunities we have nowadays to make the world a better place. Overall, it motivated me to start working on my future.”

 

Respecting Diversity within Our House

For one of our Well Being activities Lola, one of our Middle School students, came up with a wonderful idea. Each of the girls wrote something on silhouettes that they liked or found unique about each other. It’s a way to acknowledge our differences, whether culturally or personality, and that we should respect and embrace these differences. We have hung them up within our office space so every day we are reminded of the positive qualities we share within the House.

 

Our Weekend Adventures

This weekend was filled with fun activities and delicious treats! Lucélia baked a tasty chocolate cake for the girls in the house. It disappeared in minutes!

Lola had the opportunity to visit the Natural History Museum in Geneva with her friends from the other Boarding Houses.

For the Photography Workshop Peggy was able to go to off campus and take pictures of the scenery around her.

The girls kept active today by attending a Body Shaping class together!

Halloween party in Villa du Lac

  

Yesterday we enjoyed Halloween spirit in Villa du Lac.

Many friends, colleagues and especially the little juniors from other boarding-villas came to visit us. We had tricks and treats, shared sweets and drinks, watched movies, listened music, karaoke and other entertaining activities.

Everybody enjoyed the evening 🙂
