This weekend, our students enjoyed a variety of activities. From a fun cooking class, where they showcased their culinary skills, to exciting badminton and tennis matches filled with energy and teamwork.

Some chose horse riding, connecting with nature, while others found relaxation in a yoga session. Additionally, a group had the chance to spend Sunday in the snow, enjoying an exciting day of skiing.

A weekend full of movement and unforgettable moments. We’re already looking forward to the next one!

This weekend, while some of our students enjoyed an exciting getaway to the mountains, those who stayed at school didn’t miss out on the fun. We had a variety of activities. From a cooking session to an unforgettable afternoon on the ice-skating rink, every moment was full of laughter, learning and new experiences.

The activities not only allowed students to relax and enjoy their free time, but also encourage teamwork, creativity, and self-confidence. It’s wonderful to see how they take advantages of these opportunities to learn and grow outside the classroom!

We are incredibly proud of their enthusiasm and participation in every activity.

Thank you for this weekend.

This weekend, we had the pleasure of enjoying our first Ski Weekend of the year in the stunning Crans-Montana resort. With sunny skies and perfect weather, our students had the opportunity to hit the slopes for skiing and snowboarding. For those who preferred other activities, there was ice skating, multi-sports, thrilling sledding runs, and even bowling. Evenings at the hotel were just as exciting, with board games and a lively bingo session that brought us all together.

What truly makes these experiences special is the incredible sense of community that defines boarding school life. Spending these days off-campus allowed us to strengthen our bonds, create unforgettable memories, and share moments as one big family. It was a fantastic weekend, leaving us all eager for more adventures ahead!

Welcome back to a new semester!

We hope the holidays were a chance to recharge and enjoy special moments with your loved ones. Now it’s time to look ahead and start the year with enthusiasm.

The new year bring with many interesting traditions from different countries. In Spain and in Mexico, 12 grapes are eaten in sync with the midnight chimes to bring good luck. In Russia, it’s common to write resolutions on paper, burn it, and mix the ashes into a glass of champagne. In Brazil, wearing white symbolizes peace, and jumping over seven waves on the beach is believed to bring good wishes. In Italy, fireworks light up the night as a symbol of celebration. Soon, we will celebrate the Chinese New Year, a special occasion to learn more about this rich and meaningful tradition.

And this weekend, we are kicking off with Ski Weekend! It’s a perfect way to start the second semester with energy and togetherness.

Yesterday was an evening full of emotions at VDL house. We celebrated our traditional Secret Santa, a magical moment filled with laughter, hugs, and secret gifts that brought us even closer together. The girls put so much effort into choosing the perfect details for their friends, and the result was simply delightful. During the gift exchange, we enjoyed delicious homemade hot chocolate with whipped cream. 🎁✨

It was also a bittersweet evening, as we had to say goodbye to some of our companions who won’t be returning after Christmas. Ana Teresa, Sophia, and Triana, we will miss you so much. You will always be part of the VDL family, and we wish you all the best on your new journeys. 💌

Although we are all excited to return home and celebrate with our families, we know we will also miss our beloved VDL and the unique moments we have shared here.
