This week we have been celebrating Internationalism at CDL and have spent time considering what it means to us, to be ‘Global Citizens’.
After much debate and discussion that included terms like: open-mindedness; responsibility; unity; collaboration; recycling; water conservation; friendship; collective community; mindfulness; awareness and global impact, the girls have created a short definition of what it means to us:
Dear Girls,
On this special day of Valentine’s, we want to send you a message filled with love and tenderness. May this Valentine’s Day be an opportunity for you to feel all the warmth and sweetness of the love surrounding you. You are beautiful, strong, and exceptional, and we wish each and every one of you a wonderful Valentine’s Day filled with love.
With all our affection ❤️
Dear all,
Yesterday, we celebrated the International Day of Women and Girls in Science by shining a spotlight on remarkable individuals like Maria and Inès, who are pursuing careers in the field of science. We all recognise how fortunate we are to live in a time where barriers are beginning to come down and have no doubt that these amazing young women will go on to inspire future generations.
As Nichelle Nichols says: “Science is not a boy’s game, it’s not a girl’s game. It’s everyone’s game. It’s about where we are and where we’re going.”
We leave you with an inspirational video of just a few of our students who plan to get involved in the wonderful game of science!
Dear all,
We can’t quiet believe it but we have just completed our final weekend before the February break! As usual, it was a busy one…
Some of the girls had the pleasure of attending the first session of the Art Club, led by our wonderful House Tutor and talented artist, Miss Madina. The girls thoroughly enjoyed delving into various artistic techniques and insights. It was not only a fun experience but also a productive one, as they worked on developing their portfolios for future university applications, while also fostering their interests and enhancing their knowledge in the field of art 🎨👩🎨✨
In addition to the Art Club, there were several other engaging activities organized over the weekend. These included running, horse riding, chess and skiing in Verbier. We want to extend our congratulations to everyone who participated in these activities; your enthusiasm and commitment are truly commendable! 🏃♀️🏇⛷️
Wishing you all a fantastic week ahead!
Best wishes,
Villa du Lac team 😊
