Today the girls enjoyed participating in a wellbeing activity that focused on analyzing friendships through social media. There were a variety of pictures of teenagers, with a caption underneath explaining their personality, likes and dislikes. The girls had to decide whether they would be friends with these people or not by placing a heart or sad face on the photo.

We then had a discussion on why each of the girls would or would not be friends with the people in the profile. Later on the girls had the chance to choose a profile photo of a teenager and then create a caption that explains how they would like their best friend to be. It was a lot of fun!

Go Karting! 

Ski Day in Villars!

This weekend we headed to Crans-Montana for some fresh air in the mountains. The girls enjoyed participating in a variety of activities including skiing, snowboarding, ice skating, Real Fly, snow tubing… the list goes on!

We soaked up the sun and had a great time bonding with the whole Boarding Community!

The girls are packing their things and ready for a weekend in the mountains!

On the weekend the girls had an amazing experience hiking with huskies! They each had the opportunity to walk with a husky through the snowy pathways in the mountains. We were very lucky and had beautiful weather! The smiles on their faces says it all… what a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon!

       Today for our Wellbeing session we focused on identifying the warning signs within friendships. We looked at different scenarios that could occur amongst friends such as, “Your friend tells you not to hangout with certain people” or “Your friend threatens to hurt you” …

     With coloured sheets of paper, we decided on whether the situations were normal (green), a warning sign (yellow) or a bad sign (red). For each scenario, the girls expressed a variety of perspectives and gave insight of their own experiences dealing with toxic and healthy friendships. It was an insightful Wellbeing Session today!

This week we have started a new pillar in our Well-being program. We will develop this third pillar for the next weeks and it is about building positive friendships. As an introduction to the new topic, we had a presentation from Yasmina and Hai Ngan. Friendship is a very important value in our house and we hope this will be very useful for our girls.
