Weekend activities at VDL

This weekend was full of energy and sunshine at the boarding house! With the warm weather gracing us, the girls made the most of it by diving into a variety of exciting activities. From the thrill of wakeboarding on the lake to perfecting their swings on the golf course and tennis courts, there was no shortage of action. Karate sessions brought focus and discipline, while time in the garden offered a peaceful retreat.

Those looking for a gentler pace enjoyed chess, stretching and Pilates to relax and recharge. Many took to the paths for a run in the fresh air, enjoying the freedom of the open outdoors including a trip to the bio park to see the animals.

Some girls took advantage of the beautiful spring days to explore and socialise in Geneva, soaking up the culture and atmosphere of the city.

Amidst all the fun, exam preparation was in full swing. Whether revising in quiet study spaces or working together in groups, the girls showed impressive dedication and focus.

We wish the very best of luck to all our students with exams next week!You’ve got this πŸ’ͺ🏼
