Our school year began brilliantly with a spirited first assembly, where warmth and community filled the hall. Later, we gathered for a cosy Swiss-themed welcome dinner. The evening’s hearty flavours and shared laughter made everyone feel right at home. It was a perfect blend of tradition and togetherness to start the year.

24H run for Cancer Research A poweful Community Effort
This Saturday, our boarding community proudly took part in the inspiring 24-Hour Run for Cancer Research — a fundraising event dedicated to supporting vital cancer research efforts. Among the enthusiastic participants were Vivi, Rafa, Dasha, Vanessa, Chloe, Polina, Melina, Margo and Monica, who all gave their time, energy, and heart to this important cause.
The event ran continuously for 24 hours, with members of the boarding community taking turns on the track to ensure that someone was always running in support of the cause. It was not only a physical challenge but also an incredible display of unity, resilience, and compassion.
All the funds raised during the run will go toward cancer research, helping to bring hope to those affected by the disease. Seeing our students actively involved and giving their best was a proud moment for all of us.
We’re grateful for the opportunity to be part of such a meaningful event — and even more grateful for the spirit, strength, and solidarity shown by our girls. Well done to everyone who participated and supported!
CDL DAY
CDL Day was filled with energy and school spirit! Paria, Masha, Iara, Elena, and Sophia took on the Fun Run with enthusiasm, enjoying the challenge together. Aurora played a key role in organizing the event, ensuring everything ran smoothly. It was a fantastic day of fun, fitness, and teamwork!
Weekend Activities
This weekend, the girls enjoyed the beautiful weather with activities like acrobranch, outdoor stretching, cooking, Art Club, Pilates, and more. Katia and Rochelle proudly represented Villa du Lac in the Climbing Cup. It was a fun and active weekend for everyone!
Wellbeing Pillar 4
Today the girls show a video about the benefits of being active. Being active improves physical health, boosts mood, and increases energy levels. It helps maintain a healthy weight, strengthens muscles and bones, and reduces the risk of diseases. Regular activity enhances focus, reduces stress, and promotes better sleep, leading to a healthier and happier life.
Pilar Healthy Bodies and Mind
Today, we launched the Pilar “Healthy Bodies and Mind “. In the first week, the girls learned about the importance of calories and the right balance of proteins and carbohydrates needed for a healthy plate.
We showed them a video on the topic, followed by a discussion about the key takeaways. We also emphasized the importance of having a colorful plate, as variety in food ensures a well-balanced diet.
It was a great start, and we look forward to building on this foundation in the coming weeks!
Happy Birthday Serafina
Today we celebrate Serafina’s birthday. We are so blessed to be celebrating her 16th birthday with her. Have a lovely day. Lots of love from all of us.
