This week, we’re thrilled to celebrate not one, but two of our incredible boarders whose actions have truly embodied the spirit of our CDL community!

Rafa – In just one year at CDL, Rafa has made a lasting impact, earning the Career Contribution Award at the Sports Awards Ceremony – a rare and prestigious honour typically reserved for long-term students. Her determination, diligence, and undeniable stardom have shone brightly, inspiring us all. Bravo, Rafa!

Abby – Sometimes, the most meaningful gestures are the quietest. Abby attended the Seussical school musical simply to support her peers – no one asked, she just showed up. Her thoughtful presence and commitment to our boarding family and the wider CDL community speak volumes. Thank you, Abby, for supporting from the heart.

Let’s all take a moment to celebrate these two shining stars. Your kindness, dedication, and spirit make CDL a better place for everyone.

The Villa du Lac Team <3

It was a vibrant and sunny weekend at Villa du Lac, full of activity and balance.

The weekend started off with some morning tennis, while some girls enjoyed a game of badminton or went out for a refreshing run. A few of the girls also joined a day trip to Chamonix. This gave them the chance to experience the Aiguille du Midi going up by cable car taking in the stunning mountains views and discovering the French town of Chamonix.  

A special addition this weekend was the opening of the school pool at Concha so the girls were able to enjoy a relaxing swim in the sunshine right here on campus. 

Many used the long weekend to focus on studying for upcoming exams. The warm weather meant that the garden and terrace became popular spots for revising outdoors!

A lot of the girls also made the most of the break by travelling but whether revising, relaxing, or exploring, it was a lovely and well-balanced weekend for all!
