The weekend spirit arrived early this week as Friday saw all the students coming together to celebrate International Day!!! Whether they were selling traditional food from their countries or providing international themed face painting, many of our girls got involved and did a fantastic job raising funds for charity. Special shout outs go to Masha, Aurora, Katia, Paria, Sophia, Rafa, Hecto, Vanessa, Polina, and Dasha for their amazing contributions.

The rest of the weekend saw a mixture of regular and new activities taking place. Maybe it was the tennis fever that hit Geneva this week with the ATP tour being hosted in our city, but we certainly had plenty of girls making the most of the courts on both Saturday  and Sunday! It was ace!!

In a departure from the usual activities, a small group of our girls joined the long awaited boat trip to Yvoire on Sunday. They travelled by boat across the lake to France where they ate crêpes, visited the local artisanal stores and visited  the beautiful ‘garden of five senses’ where they could learn about the different types of plants and even taste some of them! The group had a wonderful afternoon and it was great to be able to make the most of the good weather and see one of our local gems.

This week will be a short one with classes finishing after school on Wednesday ready for the long weekend. Suitcases are already being packed by many excited girls in anticipation!

Wishing you all a wonderful week ahead,

The Villa du Lac Team 🙂
