Another Great Weekend in Boarding!
This weekend, our students enjoyed a variety of activities for all tastes. From a relaxing stretching session to unwind and improve flexibility, to exciting tennis matches that put their skills to the test. We also had a fun cooking class, where they explored new recipes and showcased their culinary talents.
To top it all off, some students took advantage of Sunday to hit the slopes and enjoy a fantastic day of skiing. What an unforgettable experience!
A big thank you to everyone for your enthusiasm and participation. We look forward to another amazing weekend full of activities and special moments! 🎿🎾👩🍳✨

Taking Care of Ourselves to Grow
In today’s House Meeting, besides discussing important matters about the house, we talked about Pillar 3: Self-Care. But what does self-care really mean for our students?
Beyond face masks and rest days (which are great too!), self-care is everything we do to feel good inside and out. For students, this can mean many things: staying organised to avoid stress, getting enough sleep, taking breaks from screens, eating well, or even knowing when to ask for help if something is worrying them. During this stage of life, full of changes and responsibilities, learning to take care of themselves is key to performing better, feeling more confident, and enjoying daily life.
To make it more fun, we tested our knowledge with a Kahoot! (yes, that mobile quiz game that always brings out everyone’s competitive side). Between laughter and quick answers, we learned that self-care isn’t a luxury but an essential tool for academic and personal success.
We keep growing together! 💙

Boarder of the week ⭐️
This week’s boarder of the week is…. MELINA
Melina fearlessly put her ski skills to the test as she competed in the house ski race in Verbier last Sunday. She was speedy, skilful and stylish as she raced down the slopes. ⛷️ ❄️ 🤍
A big well done Melina. Keep up the great work!!
